Holy crap is right!!

You're not supposed to catch your carbs on fire, Taylor...
Seriously, though, glad you found it.
That is certainly a problem...lol...

Good call, steve!
(lockin' her up now...)

I bet you've seen some good carb fires in your day, though. I was down at my buddies dad's shop once and these clowns were trying to get an old truck started. (You know, pouring a coffee can of gas directly into the carbs). One little "boom" and flaming gas sprayed all over the engine and the bottom of the hood. Instant flaming engine bay...lol..
My bud's dad is real cool and collected, and he just looks a me...real calm...shakes his head.... and says "what a bunch of retards". They were all running around trying to put the fire out, and one even grabbed a fire hose...LOL..
Funny scene.

Good detective work. I looked at my 1990's VG93A carbs and each has a boss for the air cut-off valve (13 in the Bikebandit schematic), but they were never drilled or tapped for installing one. Good thing.
