*edit* Note, cylinder bank 3/4 is not firing. Plugs are oil fouled. All four cylinders have decent compression, considering that the rings probably are not set yet. Carbs are fresh rebuilt, I have yet to check spark.*/edit*

I have set my idle at 1K rpm.
Idle adjustment screws for the 3/4 bank is almost all the way out.
Idle adjustment screw for 1/2 bank several turns in.

Both carbs are idling at 5 kg/h according to my flow meter.

Mix screws for all 4 carbs are 2.5 turns open.

When I open the throttle to ~3K rpm, the 3/4 bank only sucks slightly more air. The 1/2 bank jumps up to about 15 kg/h.

So, where am I off.

I have my weber tech manual too, but thought I would ask here to see if I got a faster "ah-ha" type answer (like usual).
