    Carbs rebuild on 1981 GS850G

    Hello everyone, I've just removed the carbs from my 1981 GS850G and planning on cleaning and rebuilding them, they are in a bad state of repair and in need of a full overhaul. Whilst previously searching this forum I noticed a tutorial on the carb rebuild, it was a very descriptive tutorial, complete with photos and descriptions, even down to undo this screw type of procedure.
    I should have book marked it, but unfortunately I didn't, and you guessed it, I now can't find it! Can anyone steer me in the right direction, your help will be much appreciated.
    Regards LJR47

    NEVER SNEAK UP ON A SLEEPING DOG..NOT EVEN YOUR OWN.


    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

      The rebuild tutorial linked in my signature has a lot more information than the version chuck linked.
