I am trying to remove the carbs from my F3 and I have managed to loosen the two left carb to engine intakes but when I come to the right hand two which the book says are accessed from the right hand side I find the thermostat housing is in the way! I have tried every way to access them but it seems impossible. HELP¬

 

Moved the thread over to the f3 section..

You will need a very long Philips head screwdriver or ratchet extension. The one I use is about 56cm long.
