Current Status June 21:
Removed all the carburetors. Inspected all the boots. Look good. Ordered new o-rings for the fuel connecting tubes.  I had to cut a slot in all the choke plate screw heads to remove them. Ordered new screws. Disassembled the carburetor pistons.  Discovered some gaulling on the surfaces. Removed using 1000 grit paper and polished using a dremmel. Discovered the large seals were not installed consistent.  Some had lip facing up and some down.  Installed all seals so the lip side laid against the carb housing. Awaiting receipt of the o-rings and screws before I can reassemble and try.

Took the extra time to do some cleaning and polishing of the carbs. I bought a new Dremmel and really love it.
