    As title says, I have a set of 8k mile carbs, but they have problems with the gas getting to the outer 2 carbs when I go on the freeway.....if I go slow and cruise they dont drain and I have all 4 cylinders Zoomin'.

    Today the carbs began to leak from the fuel inlet seals..right out of where the fuel inlet swivels up and down... not safe in my eyes...lol.

    I always had a problem with idle, If I held the throttle just a hair it would idle fine and run like a champ from there out....but they would keep the revs up high for too long if I adjusted the knob in the middle of the carbs.....so I had quite a few problems.....but I have put 2k miles as they were and was okay.

    Also the choke would just not allow the bike to start, it would flood bad.....and then it would take some time to start....sometimes I would push start it to save the stress.

    That more than you need to know, but if you could chime in with an offer or product or any info, that would be great, thanks!

    you might want to try moving this up to the XJ Chat block. Most people wouldn't look here for someone that is looking for help. That would be the place to go. I am definitely not the one to be of any help but I am sure Rick or one of the other guys is more than capable.
