By the way, how the hell do you remove the choke cables from the carbs?

Unscrew the brass hexagon where the cable enters and remove the choke plungers.

They're probably stuck in the carb body.

bestest way is to boil a kettle and drop each carb in on at a time.

floats are brass, carbs are alloy. thus expand I heat at different rates.

Yeah. I know physics. Clearly that gets on yout tits for some reason, in which case I'm sorry. I don't claim to know much about triples, I try to make my posts light-hearted, self-deprecating, non-PC and, unless taking the piss, impersonal. I guess that's not to everyone's taste. With the exception of thieves and paedos, my ethos is 'live and let live', in-line, I would like to think, with the recent KTC thread about 'This Forum'. I can be pedantic, technically confrontational and wrong but hey, none of us is perfect.
So chill out ya grumpy twat and let's have a pint sometime.

Getting back to subject, yep Billy, I expect Neil's right about your carbs.

That's exactly what Fiona Bruce said to Huw Edwards on the 10 o'clock News last night!

Today i'll be mostly spending a relaxing afternoon ultrasonically cleaning my carburettors!

Loads of muck coming off them.

Good to meet Neil today, had a good long chat about all sorts of random stuff.

Thanks for the advice and tea mate, much appreciated.
