check the carb rubbers are good & tight - its an airleak causing the misfire.
it helps if you grease the rubbers and carb stub when you fit them.... they do tend to go a bit hard over time and lose flexibilitty.
the clips need to be VERY tight.
you may find it easier to do them up with a 1/4" extension & 8mm socket rather than a x head screwy.
running on one??? assuming you have a 16L tank, i think one of the fuel lines is twisted / kinked.

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.
