Re: fitting carb slides
sounds like someone has the same job as me this weekend, its the same as putting them awful 33bhp slides in. half hour in the local dealer so you steal there tools and lift job done, no problems.

Re: fitting carb slides
You need a lift to fit carb slides?
If easy: 4mm hex 6mm hex needle nose pliers short phillips screwdriver long phillips screwdriver If hard: all of the above plus hammer impact driver 2x 10mm open end spanners I'd advise cleaning and greasing the choke plungers while you're in there.

Re: fitting carb slides
