Yeah, looked awful - no wonder I couldn't keep that carb from running rich!
Guess that's what happens to carbs that sit with solvent (e.g., old gas) in them for 15 years...
Gotta tell ya, the new needle jets sure make this old bike run smooth - no more stumbling either.

Glad it's fixed. Thanks for sharing.
And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!
