Okay, I'm going to GUESS that the Webers are either running too rich 
and have fouled your plugs, or are running to lean and done worse 
damage.  If this problem started just after you installed the new 
carbs then I suggest you pull and inspect your plugs.

If you don't know how to read your plugs look at one of the many 
manuals that has pictures, or give us a description.  And prepare to 
start up the long gradual carb learning curve.
