If you rebuilt the carbs did you maybe fit the butterflys the wrong way? Easy to do...

Yeah, sticking butterfly probably. I've thrown spanners into my angry neighbours garden before. Full on chucked them over the fence. |

You said you built up a set of SUs didn't you? I once made the mistake once when I rebuilt a set, I put in those replacement butterfly bushes on the spindles but didn't push them in far enough so air went around the butterfly when I tried to run the car. Took me a while to spot that one. |
