    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Removing the throttle shaft is rarely needed. The screws holding the butterflies are swedge fit. Why are you trying to remove them?

If you must remove them, as looking at the carb to the right in your photo, there is a split pin holding the carb sync adjuster to the throttle shaft. You must drive that pin through the throttle shaft. Then, remove the butterfly screws, and butterfly. After that, the throttle shaft will pull out.

I second no need to remove them. Do the dip and just be eaay on strong air around them after treatment.
 
btw, I have another mikuni bs 32 for spare parts and I have now realized that there is a difference in the float bowl. what is the purpose of that hole (which to me appears to be blind) ?
