I've got my project xs1 running. After changing out the chargin system to the banshee system and pamco ign. I've got the motor running at idle. Anything more is pop pop pop out of the pipes. It will run at idle pretty ok. After I turn it off it will poor gas from the bowl overflows. Then it won't start again.
Pulled the carbs apart tonight to find a worn and bent needle in one. O rings are toasted in the seats. And the diaphram on one is torn up. I also feel a ridge on the inside of the upper needle slide. Possibly where the plastic ring that sits on the needle top has worn?
So I'm pricing parts from mikes xs and I'm over 150 pretty easy just finding what I've found tonight. Am I better off buying a new set of vm34's or any other good kits out there? Not sure I want to get a bunch of time and money in these to find they're going to be a much lesser carb. Opinions?
