[QUOTE="chug, post: 576743, member: 22746"] I had a problem with mine not idling with a crappy bocar, changed it for a genuine solex which I rebuilt completely, that solved the problem but soon after it stopped idling again. I removed the carb and stripped again but this time soaked it in acetone, considering I had previously cleaned it I couldn't believe the amount of crap the acetone removed. Another rebuild kit and it was idling again, I don't think it takes much to block the idle circuit on these, I squirted loads of cleaner through mine and used an air line the first time aswell.
