    GS850gl carbs

    Hey, does anyone know if the Suzuki carbs on the carb bank the same? I have a bank of 4 carbs and 2 of them have stripped pilot jets. Someone is offering to sell me 2 carbs, I just need to know if the carbs in the bank are interchangeable.

      I recently had a similar problem, only it was stripped pilot air screws (three of them.) I drilled down into the screw, took a torx bit, and drove it into the hole using a hammer, then heated the carb body, with lots of PB Blaster on the screw, and it turned out no problem.
