Topic: 750 F2 # 1 on mine does not run at all at idle.

Got it...

Recommend vice grips.  You can separately adjust the force to grab the jet versus
the force to extract it...

And after all that ... the emulsion tube was clean as a whistle.

I have highlighted the actual jet position in the attached picture.  The emulsion
part in under that.

My latest theory is that when I shoved a can of carby cleaner (with the tube on)
into the idle mixture screw.... there must be a passageway going across from that
to the jet cavity (containing the emulsion tube) and then out to the  bleed hole
in the mouth of the carby.  Arrow in the picture...

Or it could have just been clean all along.

Anyway.. will press on.
Tx for the  advice and moral support guys.

Just an update .... had to put go away for a week or so....

Came back last night, and did a static balance on the carbs using
a 1.5 mm drill bit. Another great idea I gleaned from this forum.

Now I have the correct float height settings .. mine came up about 3-4 mm or so
Mmmm ... so that  will "fattened" it up a bit....

Put them back on the bike.  Hint... I wiped a bit of dishwashing liquid around
the inside of the spacers, and the carbs slipped right in.. smooth as.

Kicked it over .. and it is a new bike... smooth and running on all 4.
Pulls like a train from idle.
Top stuff...  Using the old spit on finger onto the exhaust outlets.. .seems #1 is
still a bit lazy....still.

Now to go for a run and get that howl out of the 4 into 1....

Still no accelerator pump.. will start a new thread.
And need to balance the carbs ..  saw a great thread on a home made one
using a pet bottle...

Tx for the help guys.
