Should be 4 fixings (two on each carb)that you undo and remove, from the engine side of the outer carb flanges (that fix the carbs to the plenum.

Many thanks for the reply, I have removed three of the bolts but am having difficulty with the last, my hand is to large to get between the wing and plenum. Have considered smashing it with big hammer and fitting pancakes.
the reason for removing it is that the carbs are seriously out of tune and the choke is sticking.
regards
