    O rings for carb interconnect tubes GS850 (1980)

    I have given up trying to find the "O" rings for interconnect tubes via the Suzuki parts drawing for carburettors.
    Generally the Suzuki illustrations are good but the carbs! (ugh)
    Does anyone have a standard O ring number for these as buying 16 through Mikuni in Australia requires a mortgage on my house?

        ... actually, I drove straight through. I'm home, busy recovering from my vacation. Thanks, though!

          "Holiday"?? I thought he went "walkabout".

            The O-ring sizes are listed in the CV carb rebuild tutorial linked in my signature.

            I've been buying O-rings in bulk for some time now which saves money.

            The fuel tubes are easy to find O-rings for because two different sizes interchange: 1.8mm x 6mm or the common -10 size which is super easy to find and cheap.
