I usually just remove the slow and main jets and hit them with carb cleaner
and compressed air then clean any varnish out of the bowls and passages.
Paul has a ton of Carb tips on his fix-it page:

The fuel cock is easy, just make sure the
If I've got this right: diaphragms are on top and float bowl on bottom?
Great info to know! Will blowing the jets out also cause problems with
the slides? Should I stick to manual cleaning?
I'll do brakes and drive oil if I can get it running. The tires are in bad
shape, cracking and almos
I'm in Salt Lake City. I've seen there is a map I should add myself to.
I've got a battery to test with (though for some reason it came with a
battery that doesn't actually fit), but I need to get the electrical out of

fiber - he's a graphic designer and also builds models of the stuff he's
designing as part of his job so he's good at building stuff. However, a

Cleaning the carbs should be enough, do them one at a time and don't take
them off the rack. Also, you can check the slides without removing the
diaphragm covers, they should slide up and foomp back down. Removing the
covers runs the risk of damaging them. Just take off the float bowl and
clean out
Way to jump right in and welcome to the group
Honda still makes lots of parts like carb kits
But they are cheaper on line and have float needles
