Carb side cap question

[mortation]

I noticed that carbs 1 & 4 use caps to plug what would be access holes if they were 2 & 3 (see pic, 26,27,28,13) has anyone ever had these leak air before? After say a carb dip??

Are parts 61/60 for the choke slides?

Number 26 is a seal that will harden and shrink with age. It needs replaced even if you don't soak the carb. Being rubber it is in the same sorry shape that all the rubber parts are in. If you think your bike runs great, replace them and you'll be impressed.

I actually saw fuel leaking out of the #4 end. I used a standard o-ring and it's fixed.

Go here http://www.alpha-sports.com/suzuki_parts.htm. Select your year then model. It has good scans of all the parts - with descriptions and how many you need.

Thanks,
I have put that in a spreadsheet and can now add the o-ring sizes and stainless steel replacement bolt sizes for a record. The actual diagram is a bit grainy and if anyone has a higher resolution carb diagram for the GS1000G 1980 BS34SS carbs I will appreciate it.

I looked around and couldn't find another site with a better diagram, however, according to my parts cross reference, the 1981 1000G and GL use the same carbs as the '80 G. The '81 GL diagram at Alpha Sports is much clearer and, after a brief look, appears to be the same except for the wire bracket they added to keep the clutch cable from interfering with the carb linkage.

Thanks, yes that one is much better and one can see the parts better. The GS850 one is still much clearer on a print out though. Hopefully someone will scan a copy in from a manual as it seems if the microfiches do not give such great copies. Using the two together in the meantime, as I will be taking mine apart as soon as the o-rings arrive in the post.
Your help and input is much appreciated
