have you tried the fuel filters (engine bay and the one by the fuel tank)
they get dirty pretty fast especially if it has run low on fuel lately
worth a look as there fairly cheap before doing the carb thing.
if you are going to change the carbs DONT go for the single carb conversion BAD MOVE...
i have just put on twin solex 40s and it drives lovely..
