I've given up on my Virago carb. There is something fundamentally wrong with it that no amount of cleaning, replacing parts or swearing has fixed.
I am thinking of buying a pair of Chinesium VM38s and a dual throttle cable and hoping for the best. The bike may not be insurable, so I don't want to spend money on it. Even beat up stock carbs are commanding a few hundred bucks on Ebay. It's that, or just toss it all in the skip. I figure if I can get it running it might be worth a few hundred bucks as a farm runabout or something. Lesson learned!
