whats up guys as some of u know been trying to get my bike up and running in proper condition I got the timing down it still needs some loving tho waiting for my light to come in so while doing that figured I go in the carbs and figure out why I have basically no idle. First I took left carb out cleaned and inspected everything was fine only thing was I have a little crack in the diaphragm so I put electric tape over it I wasn't sure what else to do. and I moved the clip in the needle to factory setting of the 4th ring from the 3rd . I proceded to take of the left carb to find that it was super dirty with carbon there was black soot all inside. This got me sort of excited seeing as though iIl be able to find the problem. Checked everything out and all was clear then I tried to clean the air holes out built within the carb and found that one of them won't let me clean it out. It seems to be clogged up but I'm not sure if it's just supposed to be like that. I read the carburetor guide and it states that it's an air flow so I should be able to spray cleaner through it correct?¿ nothing goes through. The hole I'm talking about that doesn't allow anything in has an m next to it and the one that works doesn't have any letters next to it. If this is true this could be the problem to my rich fuel mixture and no idle? And how do I get whatever is in there out? with an air compressor? Sorry for the shitty pictures that was the best I could do thanks guys
