Carbs need balancing?
To be honest, when I rebuilt the Carbs, I stripped them down and cleaned them out and replaced the gaskets, upon rebuild I didn't change any of the settings on them as I don't have the necessary equipment to test or balance them, judging by the condition of the plugs it might be running a bit rich, as for balancing them, I haven't done that, is this within reach of an amateur mechanic, or more of a specialist job? I would imagine that unbalanced carbs would cause a lack of power, could unbalanced carbs also produce a miss?
