just look out for dirt really
just split the top and bottom of the carb open
take out and clean jets , could allways take out the venturis and clean them too
check the enrichment and accerator pump work
thats about it really

the second choke will only operate past half throttle and its vacumn operated
there a plastic tab which holds it shut under half way
so open the throttle fully and hold it there with something
then disconnect the vacumn for second choke to the carb and then suck the pipe. the second choke should open as you suck
if it dont then you have a problem with either a dodgy diaphram or a sticking throttle plate
lube it all up with some wd40
