    So just in case it's useful to someone, where the slide goes into the recess at the bottom of the carb..years of that spring banging the slide home, had misshaped the recess, making it pinch the slide. So a little patient re shaping with a nail file has it sorted, still clicks a tiny bit but...

    Gs1000 1979 no 3 slide click.

    Thanks for your reply/ it is an 18 pole, its definitely Gs so somebody out there knows where those 2 yellow wires go, I have a 79 850 stator that's a different size but i think that if i changed the casing and the rotor it would go on as the taper is the same, and the sprag clutch, I have never...
