Still no clues
Thanks

Re: [R90SWORLDNET] R90s wont idle after carburetor rebuild
When you say that you made a “minor rebuild”, what did that involve? Did you remove or replace the jets for instance. Please elaborate a little.
I take it that the slides were removed, perhaps that throttle stop screws as well for cleaning?
Wild guess without knowing more, check that the throttle stop screws are properly adjusted. Also, invest in a carb synchrometer / balancer to help take out the guesswork. Cheap and available on Amazon or eBay.
The experts will tell you they do it by ear. Well good for them, but too much trial and error for this occasional mechanic.
Best regards, Kirk

for a good carb balancer / sychronizer tool to use on the BMWs. Also best
way to alternate between cylinders without having to pull the plug wires
every time.
Thanks,

Learn from the mistakes of others, because you cannot
live long enough to make them all yourself!
A large number of good tests, inspections, measurements and both good
and bad experiences, are more valuable than many opinions, particularly
if found in a Facebook Group.

It may be because I am half deaf and some of the extraneous noises just aren’t heard.
Cheers,
