Larry,
When I got my 2000 running it was acting very much the same as what you are
describing. I tried working with my Unisyn to balance the carbs, but there
was just not much air flowing through the front carb.
Finally I sent the carbs to Keith (planned maintenance) and he told me that
the front carb butterfly was fully closed and did not allow any air at all
to pass through at idle. There were no more problems after Keith repaired
the bodies and fully rebuilt the carbs.
Get yourself a mirror and take a look down the barrel of both carbs to see
if there is a difference. Maybe your problem is the same as mine was.

Subject: Carb question
At idle my engine is running very rough. When I pull plug wires on the
front
two cylinders there is little change. When I pull one of the back two it
just about dies out. Does this mean that my front carb is either full choke
and
flooding the engine or that my idle circuit is plugged? It seems to do okay
at higher rpm. I am still waiting for my book on SU carbs that I ordered
three
weeks ago. Oh well.
Thanks
