I was trying to get a grasp on whether the carbs you polish in about 90 min are slide type ro a butterfly pumper type, but for polishing time I guees it make little difference. I would expect familiarity does make a difference.
As such I am starting a separate log of parts, issue encountered and remedies for my reference.
Thanks again, James

yes SnS carbs are butterfly type , so they are a .bit faster to do ( about an hour)but the original hd carbs are the slider type .those take about 90 minutes
and yes familiarity does make a difference
the more you do the faster you will get .
one small trick to go faster that i still use after many years is to take a minute to look at the part and visualise how i will proceed
