I have not participated in the forum for a long time but I always visit from time to time to see how the Oldwings world is going. As usual I only post when I need help. 
My brother was given a 1985 GL1200 (lucky), which did not have the carburetor rack installed. When we asked the past owner why they were not installed and he replied: "I took them out to check a fuel leak and took the opportunity to install the kit on all the carburetors. But it has been a long time (2 years) and I don't know how install them back. "
Since last week we have been struggling with gas leaks but finally we managed to turn on the machine. The problem I see is that I feel a strange noise in the engine, something very similar when the bike is thirsty for gasoline. It is worth mentioning that the only thing that stays on is using the choke. If I use the throttle she dies.
After having turned it on for a few minutes I checked the temperature of the 4 exhaust to make sure we have combustion in the 4 cylinders. It is a possibility that I have f*** the setting of the floats, since there was a time when we had gas leaking everywhere and I thought that maybe the floats were poorly adjusted. I adjusted them to 7.5mm. To that extent they cut the gas.
Friends, I've talked a lot and I want to hear your impressions.

Jungo
