No disrespect, but your idea of "spotless" is different from mine. Those throttle butterfly valves didn't turn chocolate brown from a weeks work of varnish.
The Keihin CV34's have some tiny passages though the bleed pipes, pilot jets, and pilot circuits. These passages need to be truly spotless in order for the bike to run properly.
No disrespect but you are suggesting that all of those valves were equally polluted exactly the same with that thickness in a week because of dirty passages, or that they were not cleaned at all and looked like that after 10+ years of sitting?
Are you being serious? I told you it came from softened varnish in the tank. I missed some spots. The tank is nice and I didnt want to ruin it having never cleaned a rusty tank. I saw the liquified varnish in the transparent line. Ran the bike anyway. Now I have to pull them and clean them again with "my idea of spotless"
I was just sharing a mistake. Thought that was ok round here. My daily driver is an 88 Pontiac Fiero that I brought back from the dead. I appreciate the help and advice that has been offered here. I take it all to heart and do follow up on my bike, but there is no need to be condescending m8.
