An air leak could cause the spit/pop out of just one? but I think a balancing session would show this up?

perhaps a float that is jamming shut or fuel way cruddied up?
Have you got a colourtune glass spark plug ?

If it did this with different carbs also could it be a valve sticking?

Maybe worth looking at the spark plugs, have a spare set ready if your anything like me removing them

Thanks robocoq
The diaphragms are fine,also the floats,I have also changed the plugs.Its looking more like what we both suspect a valve.I was hoping somebody would come up with something simpler.I was not looking at any more major surgery untill the winter.
