Number 4 Carb won't Synch!!!!! I need some advice...

Remove the 2 floatbowl vent tubes. They restrict the venting.
Keith.

Is this true? When I called the shop in my area they said that I had to plug the 2 vent nipples in between the carbs. They said that was the reason my bike was idling at 5k rpm.
I don't know what to do now...

If we are talking about the same 2 vent nipples, yes, you should remove their lines and leave them open if you are running pod filters. These provide venting to the floatbowls. Each nipple feeds 2 carbs. If you plugged them up, how would the bowls vent? As the jets draw fuel, air MUST be allowed to enter the float chamber or you'll experience fuel starvation. Your shop either has a communication problem or they don't understand basic carburetion principles.

Thank God I have you all.
I have a feeling they may have wanted me to bring them my bike to work on.
