Sounds like she needs a good carb sync, and your jet adjustments will only be band-aid cures if them carbs ain't balanced right to begin with.
I don't know how it is with the VM33's, but these RS34's will throw the engine way-off with the tiniest mis-adjustment.

:huh:

This is the clip of dialing it in. Too long for the last one. Air screws are just about where they should be. May have to go down one more step.
