Right folks I need the experts, my carbs were fully rebuilt by myself and all genuine parts, jets,needles,gaskets,seals the full monty here are the concernsHave I got the right carbs ?When I first fired her up she ticked over low and not too bad, I then put the clocks on her and she started to Rev at 3 to 4 k on her own ?, are some butterflies stuck open ?, even with idle screw turned off she revs highAll standard airbox, filter, rubbers plugs,leads, everything genuine Suzuki and new,float heights perfect, main and pilot newI ultrasonic cleaned the carbs myself have a look at pictures, one of the pics shows my finger pointing at a hole that’s drawing air where the other 3 carbs do not draw air in same place, this should not be a hole as not filtered air did the ultrasonic cleaner make this hole ?, I can seal this easy, but even plugged she still revved at 3 to 4K on her ownHave a look at pics and vid and see what ye think before I pull the carbsThis was hap import but got all euro spec now even standard cdi and exhausts

SORTED FOLKS, First i cleaned the tank, then used a 2 pack epoxy resin on the outside of tank, let the resin set for a day, bought a tank lining kit 100 euro 3 part bottle A was for cleaning,etching and removing rust,left it in the tank 24hrs emptied out bottle A and the tank was spotless and didnt leak thru resin i had done, bottle B was to remove any residue from the tank after bottle A Bottle C was the the last thing to do, poured in all of it swirled it around for couple of minutes repeated this every 8 to 10 mins for an hour so the tank was well lined drained the remains of bottle A and left it to cure for 24 hours next day filled her with petrol and went for 120 mile ride and not one drop came out RESULT it was a fecker of a job tbh but its done right and i have a nice clean tank now thanks again for ur help folks lesson learned

cant drill out mate its sitting against the tank the only option i have is to fill the hole and seal the tank with thick tank sealer

thnks mate

what way is he doing it mate ?

folks i made a 1.5mm dia hole with a tapered tap in the lower side of the fuel tank, you can see by the picture, its on my freshly painted efe ,(jack ass) iss my name for the moment lol Anyways i was thinking of gett an epoxy resin to fill the hole and then i was going to line the tank the hole is about 1.5mm dia,but issue is that the outside plate is tapped to allow the strap to be bolted to the tank so room is tight , might be able to get a 3mm bar and put a resion on the end of it and see can i fill the hole, then i was going to seal the tank with a good sealer what are your thoughts apart from calling me a jackass ,
