      choke plunger

      Thank you very much Mack! It arrived last Friday.
      I've been having a heck of a time getting my carbs clean enough, still getting popping from left exhaust (carb #1 or #2). I think it"s the gallery between the pilot jet and the the three little holes at the butterfly that's not 100%. Do you fish something through there or rely on carb spray and compressed air?
      Thanks again for your help, I need all I can get.
      You're a good man

        Sorry

        I've been busy lately and didn't see your question. To clean those little holes you need to go in from the diaphram side. Pull the top, then the diaphram out. Now retract the enrichement plungers so the hole joining the diaphram chamber and enrichement plunger cavity is wide open. If you look into that hole with a flashlight tilted slightly down and to the left you'll see another passage leading down to the top of the carb barrel. Spray lots of cleaner in there then close the enrichement plungers. Let it sit for a few minutes the roll the carb body over and blow compressed air up through the pilot tower. If you put your finger under those little holes you should feel the carb cleaner coming out with the compressed air. Repeat until it blows clear.
