Airbox: Put the air box into the frame, slide the carbs and rubbers into place. It is a fiddley job. Be sure you don't damage the rubbers AND that they are all in place properly, not folded over.

Carbs: I think they should be 2 1/2 turns out? My factory T300 manual is MIA at the moment. THe workshop needs cleaniing. What that has to do with your carbs is beyond me............

Cleaning the chain: Parafin or deisel will work well. Some auto parts stores sell diesel based engine degreaser, it aslo works well. I've used that stuff myself on O ring chains. I would stay away from caustic commercial degreasers. If those are Ok I am sure some one will chime in and correct me.
Removal of the chain is not needed to clean it. If you don't have accese to a jack to lift the rear tire off the ground, clean a section of chain, push bike forward and repeat. The garage at my old house was just long enough for me to do the chain on a TBS. How long was my old garage? I never measured it.
