Throttle plate (butterflies) checks and adjustment

Balancing instructions are assuming everything else is in order. Typically the throttle plates (butterflies) are off just a bit and as mentioned floats aren’t exact. The plates can be checked with the carburetors off the car, by shining a light from the bottom with the plates closed and checking that no light shines through, the less light the better. You can also tap the plates lightly with your finger and tell if they are closing equally by the sound, a thump means it’s closing all the way whereas a click tells you it’s not closing. The plates that click when you tap can be lightly adjusted with finger pressure.
