They are easy to rebuild. There are detailed instructions at:

(Follow the side menu to the technical section)
These are Nelson Reidel's detailed teardown and rebuilding
instructions. Some of the photos are missing, so they are not perfect.
These used to be on the buckeye Triumphs web site but Nelson pulled them
down for fear of lawsuits. The wayback machine archived the articles so
you can still get to them from there, but some of the pictures somehow
disappeared.

Subject: Carb rebuilding
I'm considering rebuilding my carbs myself. They work fine, but leak
both
oil and gas. The throttle shafts seem fine. What are the pitfalls of
doing this
myself? I'm choking on the price quoted by a number of vendors
($175/carb
...I need 3). I bought the Haynes manual. It seems lacking. Are there
any web
sites or other resources out there? I've rebuilt the rest of the car
myself
including the engine. I'd like to be able to say I did the carbs as
well, but
I'm a little apprehensive.
Joe
