well im no further forward really,

if i pull the carbs up (they have abit of give on the silicone hoses) so there sitting at more of an angle to the engine, it brings the idle up abit, and its a smoother idle, but the throttle linkage doesnt move (so its not the throttle being pressed)

is that an air leak or do the carbs prefer to sit at that angle?

i couldnt find any leaks near the silicone hoses though.

thanks
