You don't have a spare set of carbs for comparison ???

the poor running after reserve could be crap from the bottom of the tank clogging things as the main fuel tube is higher than the reserve?

In the end i took the carbs off and rigged up a test fuel tank (borrowed one of a kart). I connected the fuel tank to the carbs and raised it about a meter above the carbs and sure enough i found out which one was leaking.
After a thorough clean up i tested the carbs again, problem sorted. Its been spot on ever since!
