    GS1100E pilot jet questions

    Im finishing up building 1 set of 34mm Cv stock carbs out of 3. Some of the pilot have no holes in the side, others have them. Should I use the ones with only the single bottom hole or the ones with the holes on the sides & the bottom ? All of them are 45s. Thanks for the help again

    There was a discussion a while back on this very subject. Not sure what difference it would make, but make sure they are all the same. If it does not work well, use the other set, but be sure to let us know about your findings.

      Either will work but I would use all the same.

        According to the rebuilding posting on GS main page it shows the stock pilots as having holes in the picture. I dont know if thats the problem though because 2 run right and 2 have much cooler pipes when on the pilot circuit. I guess Ill take them off again and go thru the end carbs again to see if anything is plugged up. Once it comes off the pilot circuit the bike hauls ass. I did a search but all I could find were 2 guys arguing over which to use. Unless someone knows otherwise I think Ill change to all stock ones w/holes as Im using Mikuni mains with dynojet needles. I just wish they could have made the carbs more difficult to get off & on with the factory airbox. At least I know it runs now so the stator repair worked OK

              Mr. Woodman;
              The correct pilot jet model for BS34 Carbs is BS 30/96 and they has holes in their side. You can find them at a very low price at: http://www.preferredpowersports.com/...TH_FOUR_BL.htm

              Just use the above link and that's it.
              Good luck
