Hey all, sorry I know this topic has been beaten down and discussed over and over, but I just have a few questions for you all.  So I have my carbs off, again, chasing down a pesky fuel leak, I think have that solved, and while I have my carbs off I have decided to do away with the SOS.  I have looked high and low on this forum and else where about removing it, and all I can find is people saying yeah remove it and block this and go on.  So my question is this, all I need to do to remove the SOS is remove all hoses, remove the screw holding it in, and block of the nipple on the number two carb?  Is that it, anything else I need to do to it?  Also after removing it, it wont affect the jetting I had to do with my new exhaust and pod filters will it?  I think that about sums up what Im looking for, so any and all advice is appreciated.  I know that I have to become religious with shutting off the petcock when I stop, and I am already in that habit with my chopper so thats not an issue for me.  I should note that as of right now its working properly, but I just dont want to have to deal with that headache down the road, so while the carbs are already off Im gonna just get rid of it.  Any pro's or cons to keep it or get rid of it, or is really just personal preference?  Thanks again, and sorry for beating a dead horse!
