well I broke down and just went out and both new carbs instead of trying to keep making them p.o.s carbs works..im happy to say that its idling good takes off no stalling or anything. found out that I need a new rectifier not a big deal though. and for some reason I have no blinkers no clicking no power at all through the wires.. ill figure it out. but the reason I report is because im having a throttle issue. when its just sitting and idling it runs perfectly when I rev it up its smooth no missing good response.. but when I go to take off putting load on the engine it acts like its missing then when it hits about 1500 to 2500 rpm it takes off no problems and does it in each gear I pull the clutch in taking the load off and it gos away.. I replaced the vacuum line could it be the air fuel mixture on the bottom of the carbs or maby its because I haven't had them synchronized yet. I need some tips on how I could diagnose this please.. and maby a little info in the blinkers if possible.
 
This is on the 1000?
The 4 cylinder Wing likes higher rpm takeoff from stop, 2500 rpm+ but it also sounds to me like it may not be getting enough gas at low rpm or possibly timing?
What other checks/adjustments have you done.
Adjusted valves?
Are you running points or Dyna?
And yes, not synchronized can have a huge effect.
 
I just bought all four of them. ive just done carb adjustments 950 rpm at idle two turns out on the air fuel adjustment and I don't have a manual to do valve adjustments im confident I could I just never have I have feeler gauges and mechanical knowledge. and I have not checked timing yet im waiting to get more money for antifreeze so I can drain radiator I did happen to check the belt before I ran it it looks bran new. if you think that's whats goin on ill check that as soon as possible
 
Okay so I'd check the timing, set the valves , be sure the floats are set properly and synch the carbs.

Agreed.
That's a good approach.
