When you say popping out of carbs, do you mean they are falling out of the carb holders? If so, it takes quite a bit of force to get them seated properly. I had this problem, and when I fixed it there was popping in sound when they went back into carb holders. with the carbs not properly seated there will be air getting in which will make bike run poorly. Good Luck with mechanic.
