Re: [T3] Engine flooding...

If these carbs are working at all, you must have *something* installed in
the pilot jet fitting. The carbs came with electromagnetic cutoff jets, and
these are still available although not cheap. Many have been replaced with
passive jets, which work almost as well. Take a look at your carb diagram
(e.g. Haynes p. 65, Fig. 3.14, item 30). Then look at the carbs. You'll
probably see a jet screwed into that thole.

Synchronizing carbs carefully is vitally important to even basic
performance.

Not sure what you're referring to here. Which connection?
