Seriously my friend, denial ain't just a river in Egypt.

Have fun for both of us.

10-4, Big Les......!
Started the carb service this afternoon.
So far there was no air filter inside the air box - zip-nada, the end of the choke cable wasn't free so had to do some prying there, one of the throttle ends came off it's clamp without me doing anything except pulling the carb. assy. off (maybe why the idle wouldn't come back down quickly?), two of the insulator clamps were missing their nuts, two of the bolts were too short, one insulator had a tear in it and another a smaller rip on the side, and the insides of the first bowl I opened CONFIRMS these could use a good cleaning.
The carb. assy. came off REAL easy....like it was hardly secured. And the insulators.....as soft & pliable as lamb's ears!
Everything else looks pretty good. The insides look good where the valves go through.
Off to do some cleaning....stay tuned.
