I have two carbs. They are both Mikuni. It was running perfect and just died one day. The only thing I noticed was the exhaust was a little loose. The nut worked itself loose. I tightened it and it would not restart. I cleaned the carb and it would not start. I switched it the the other carb and it wouldn't start. I then pulled the valve cover and adjusted the valves. The intake was .005. The exhaust was really tight. I set them both to .005 and it started but runs rough like the main jet is clogged. When I clean them there is nothing noticeable in there to make them run bad. I am now an expert at breaking down and cleaning a carb. I'm getting good spark. I'll adjust the valves again and see what that will do.
