took the rest of the week off work so i can get me carbs removed/checked/cleaned/refitted...... and get some shit done around the house that needs doing too tbh......thats about the last thing on the vfr list too i think, part from checking valve clearance, might let a dealer do that, only costs a 50 dont it. i hate going anywhere near engines. :whistle:
