    Thanks for your help! I am having trouble getting my idle screws out so I can't tell you that it worked. They obviously have 28 years of resistance working against me.

    Thanks again guys!

      Spray them with carb cleaner and let them soak.

        In case anyone reads this through to the end, I ended up taking a little advice from Chef and Don-lo for mounting the carbs. I used new manifolds and black Zipties between the frame cross member under the tank and the angled carb rail which holds the carbs together. Super EASY to remove when working on the carbs.

        Thanks Bill and J C for your help with the carbs!

          Key thing to remember here is that the numbers on the DynoJet jets and the Mikuni jets are not directly compatible.

          There is a conversion factor, so your jets might be closer than you think.
