But the needle valves closed just fine while I had the carbs off the bike. That's what has me confused.
One thing I wondered about while I had it apart. Are the tips of the needles supposed to be black? On both needles the tips are a flat black color from the point up almost to the rim of the cone. It's a very even coloring, so I assumed it was intentional. The rest of the needles are silvery metal.
One other thing - how do I get the valve seats out?
