help cleaning Keihin CR Specials

[Guest]

I have been searching for any information on rebuilding and cleaning these Keihin CR-S 35's. I'm coming up empty handed so far on both this site and web searches. Specifically I need some pointers on how to start taking the throttle linkage apart so I can un-gang the carbs. -Dan

Ok, this is what I do. Remove the tops of the carbs then remove the screws that holds the slides. Do this on carbs 1, 2 and 4. I'll assume you've removed gang plates etc by this point. Do not remove the #3 carb from the throttle shaft. That way you don't have to screw with the springs on that carb. Then just disassemble carbs one by one and run it all through an ultrasonic cleaner. Again, I'll assume you know about keeping parts separate, etc.
