96 GSX Carbs rebuilt now what?

[Th3Skipper]

Hey guy's,
I finally finished a long over due project of rebuilding the carbs. My concerns now are do I need to re adjust the mixture screws on the carbs? The engine fired right up to an idle. It ran great before the carbs clogged originally.... I was getting like 7000 RPM's.

On another note can any of you moderators unlock my nightmare of an old thread? I would like to let everyone know about my success.

the high and low speed screws should have been removed when you cleaned/rebuilt carbs.
should have made sure they were clean and free
and yes, they should be check / set to the proper spec

You should always do a leak-down test after re-assembly! Your manual and
Mikuni.com has directions on how its done.

Yeah your right, If my memory serves me correctly I turned them back in roughly where they were. I rebuilt the carbs a year ago but I just reinstalled them due to other issues that are in that other diaster of a thread. I will re set them to the factory specs.

Thanks

I'll check that out but dont I need special tools to do this? My friend owns a Mercury Dealership/Shop he probably has one.....
