Whats up with my carb?

ive got the stock carb, and only the two smaller barrels inject fuel. I rev it to WOT and still its running on the two small ones. No pressure, drips or anything are ever coming out of the larger jets. Whats my problem?

The secondaries will only operate under load. They are prompted to open by vacuum created by the flowing air thru the primaries.
You won't see them open in the driveway.
