When taking the carbs apart, get yourself 4 containers to keep each carb's parts together.
Try not to mix parts. although not critical for certain items.
Finding a suitable sized tub can be tricky

I took the carb rack out tonight. I was much faster the second time around. 
I'm doing one carb at the time, the bowl was pretty nasty inside. I was able to clean the main jet, the pilot jet, the float valve and all the larger passages. There is only one tube that i can run a small brass wire through: the one that sticks out at the bottom of the main chamber, on the air box side. It seems to connect all 4 carbs together and has a small cylinder at its base, in the float bowl.
ThatGPzGuy , the main jet may be a generic one. It has unrecognizable marks and the O-ring is decomposing. So i'll try to get new one.
Again thank you guys! I'm way more confident tackling this with your help.
