1982 gs650g problem

[LowellGS]

Ok well. I did the carbs.. I messed up and need to do a better job. So i need to order those kits i think.. make everything easier in the long run. Only thing is, is that a few of the screws are siezed in there., also i noticed that where the float pin pass throug in carb 2 is broken off.. Like the hole broke off.. My buddies father mickey moused a new "loop" with small gauge wire.. Looks ok..still works
Is this even work fixing or should i pick up a used pair of carbs?

Anyone know where i can buy the boots for both sides of the carbs.. can't seem to fine them anywhere....

I picked up a set of calipers as well to get the shim measurements.

As for the broken post I wouldnt trust it to work properly. Id ask around on here for anothe carb body for that one. As for the kits about the only thing they are good for is the float bowl gaskets.

This is getting expensive..

The 2nd link does not work

So do i need 4 #2s and 4 #3s? from the first link

no just 2 of each. 2 are for the inside and 2 are for the outsides of the air box. Just use that same link and clinck the link for the cylinder head ad the other boots are on there. They are $23 and some change.

This is probably going to be a while out.. Hopefully i can get a new set of carbs quickly.. I'm going to have to check at a local junkyard.

thanks for that link, they have everything i need.

Try ripping the metal base from the rubber, clean-up and "plastic-steel" the parts back together.
Weigh them down with your battery overnight while drying.
But maybe, they're "CRAZIER THAN ME?"

Drying with battery on-top

Dried

I'm more worried about how much new carbs are going to cost me.

Why would you buy new carbs?

A piece is snapped off where the float pin goes and mickey moused back together with wire.

Well its part of the body? its not a piece that you can superglue back on. and well i don't have a mold to mold up a new body out of molten aluminum.

Nor am i that mechanical

You should have noted by now that "plastic-steel" will be your friend.
Do you have the other part?
If you do, you may try solder.

I personally would tap a screw into the side that broke off, the end pre-flattened and hole pre-drilled to required length...plastic-steel that puppy together within a plastic straw or something.

I'm sure that you could find a jeweler cheaper than carbs. if you feel it's too much to handle.

Is it pewter or Al?

Hi,

New intake boots make your carbs a lot easier to install. Do it right the first time and you won't have to worry about it for another 25 years.

Air Intake Repair:
Airbox removal, intake boots and O-ring replacement​

It's very difficult, if not impossible, to fix a broken float post. Another carb or two shouldn't be too difficult to find either here in the "Parts Wanted" or "Parts for Sale" sections or on ebay. Many of these bikes use the exact same carbs with just jetting changes so you can widen your search beyond just your bike.


Thank you for your indulgence,

If i do pickup new carbs, I'm just gonna throw on Pods and a DJ 3 kit. so ill be rejetting it anyways right?

Any one know what carbs i need like sizes or whatever?

Hi,

There's a factory service manual for your bike on my site. Please download it.

I bought new boots awhile back and never thought that I would ever need to again.

I use ONE only cable on my carbs.

I can VULCANIZE repair my boots properly one day.

Old o-rings can be "rejuvenated" in brake fluid (not too long).

I'm NOT spending $$$ other'n wd40 and other consumables on a bike I restored back in 1996...

This is a "test-stand" at the moment.

Same as, there is nothing good on the "tele" at the moment...
