    Rubber plug stuck on 2/4 carbs

    I?m working on the standard mikuni inline 4. Carbs 2 and 3 have a ?rubber plug? that looks completely gummed up and doesn?t come out like 1 and 4.

    am I supposed to get these plugs out? They?re long and not like a little cap.

      Well, you did wait a whole 7 minutes without a reply to your question. So you did what you had to do. Assume you mean the ones covering the pilot jets. Yes, remove and replace with new. See page 36. http://zeus.mtsac.edu/~cliff/storage...d_Tutorial.pdf

        I?m not sure how to delete a thread so I left it up w my solution haha. Im learning rapidly that sometimes it takes a little frustration and not being so gingerly with things to get old bikes apart.

          Yep. Get after it. To delete a thread you started click the edit post link near the bottom right of the post. Should figure out how to delete the post from there.
