First off, why didn't you do both carbs at the same time since you
apparently saw the same problem in both of them? And then I feel that it's
always better and easier to do those things on the workbench cuz if you drop
a part, it doesn't fall into the engine. Also, it's a good time to check
everything else on them and if you had done that, I'll bet that you wouldn't
be having your present problems.
