This morning was to be the morning of mornings. After rebuilding the two 1904's I couldn't wait to install them. Everything went fine. Got the carbs on, got the fuel lines hooked up, got the linkage adjusted. Engine started right up too, but, it was idling at 2600 RPM! No leaks, and the throttles were at bottom, but still high idle. I turned in the idle screws on the outer carbs and it slowed down some, but even with the screws full in it was still ldling at 1800! I left the center carb setting alone. The linkage does look like it is pulling the outer carbs clear shut, but something has changed. Oh, by the way, when I got home and shut 'er off I got a backfire. Obviously too much gas from somewhere.
So, just what is the process for setting the carbs on a tri power? I have a syncronizer gauge, but not much else to go on.
After I get this thing tuned I will post new pick of the lines and linkage, besides its been raining/storming all day and couldn't get the shots today anyhow
