Have been working an issue after doing top end on a 96 gtx. Along with the top end I attempted to rebuild my carbs. I used OEM kit from osd. I replaced both springs in both carbs because they weren't correct ones installed. This was all done prior to carb rebuild how to so I missed a few key points. My question is this..... if both carbs fail the leak down test of 10 psi for 30 seconds 1) would that affect pop off which is currently at 21 psi and 2) what might the culprit be? I think the only thing that is not new in both carbs are the jets, needle lever and the round o-ring. Just for further info when I attempted the pop off test I did wet the needle and first test was at 21 psi and pressure dropped to about 7 psi. Then 2nd attempt around 21 psi i could hear the wd40 bubbling under the paper towel but no pop off occurred. I am thinking of getting new levers and the round o-ring but not sure if that will fix my problem or just get a whole new rebuild kit and try again. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
