Just R&R'ed the carbs on an '88 1500.
Ain't my first rodeo w/carbs. Done many a car and in-line side drafts before. This IS my first w/a Wing and its fuel system.
Wing had rust bigtime in the tank, evacuated & cleaned it down to bare steel,no problem.
Reassembled, only to have carbs flooding to the tune of 1/2" of gas on the butterflies, until the ignition is shut off.
The bike is not mine, the owner cleaned and reinstalled the fuel pump before I could look at it.
Have a factory manual but it does not delve into theory.
Any input would be appriciated,
Thanks in advance, Rusty1
