firstly thanks for all your help...

well I fitted new needles and springs - and it idles too fast - so theres a gap 
somewhere - i tried the carb cleaner trick - didnt make any noticable 
difference.

it was suggested that there is space around the throttle discs - so i used a 
torch and there was a lot of light around the edges of the throttle discs - so 
either the venturi or throttle discs have worn - i tried loosening the screws 
and moving the discs around - but it made no real difference.

i have got some new throttle discs on order. - and so ill put them on and see 
what difference it makes.
