I appreciate all the advice I received. However, I ended up taking
it to the shop for rebuilding all four carbs. After 25 years, I
guess it is about time.

I rebuilt the carbs. It runs fine, as long as the choke is on!
What's up
with that?

I have a 1992 750NH I can pull the carbs re-jet them and put it
back
together in approx 1.5 hours. You remove the tank, remove the
airbox bolts,
loosen the band clamps on the carbs, slide the airbox rear ward
then pull
the carbs from the intake boots. Then slide the carbs out the
left side and
undo the throttle and choke cables. Installation is reverse
order. 4 screws
hold the slide assembly in and 4 screws hold the float bowl on.
Hint get a
ziplok bag for each carbs parts. Be careful both removing and
installing the
carb screws they strip easily. Don't get carb cleaner on the
rubber parts if
you can help it. Do a bench sync after re assembly. Put a
little oil on the
intake and airbox boots before re assembly, and a ratchet strap
is helpful
to push the carbs and airbox back in place. Use a hair drier to
soften the
rubber if really stiff.

Yep.
I'm about to dive into this -- twice -- I have two sets of 750
carbs I
need to do. Never done such before and need all the tips,
tricks and
homegrown advice I can gather.
Getting them out of the frame looks like a PIA knucklebuster to
me.
