Finally took the plung

[Guest]

So I decided to put my bike in a spare bedroom in the house and do some work on it over the winter. With lots of hours reading different threads trying to find answers to all my fears about cleaning and replacing the o-rings on my carbs, last night I dove in. Ran into a problem getting the throttle shaft rod thing out, but again after reading I just tapped it lightly with a socket extension and wiggled and pulled it out. I just really want to thank all you guys for the great advice and direction for us newbies. One carb down gonna dip it tomorrow and start the second carb.

Yup, that was my first task when I started on my winter poject. I printed out the 40 or so sheets from the carb rebuild tutorial and set myself up with four containers marked 1,2,3,4 and also marked each carb body.

Tore them down and put them back, following each step.

Worked out great.

Lots of helpful people here!

Not sure of the setup of yur spare bedroom, watch out for the chemical odors!
