It's possible that some orifices inside your carb could still have some blockage. Did you use any carb cleaner /q-tips ? You want to see shiny brass inside when you shine a light in there if they are freshly, mechanically cleaned.Make sure you can blow through the jets/or see through them. When working on carbs,best to sit at a fairly large empty table, so that it's easier to keep track of /organize all of the internals. Take Desmond up on his offer if you can. Feel free to make your own manometer as Ian described, and there are also many you tube videos on homemade manometers. As Ian stated, best to use 2 cycle oil just in case you do suck some in in the balancing procedure. The Morgan Carbtune tool is what I used when I did mine. Likely you will need the D -shaped tool to adjust your mixture screws, if your bike is 13 yrs old. We're here to help, tools, knowledge,labor. D'ont let a day's frustrat ion sway your confindance in yourself to get through this. But in the name of riding sooner than later, you might wish to enlist some help. Best wishes
