    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

1981 GS1100EX BS34SS carbs. I have two sets, but #1 carb has broken float post,other set has round off jet top.The one under little metal cap also #1 carb. Can I replace it with #2 #3#4 or is this a no can do?They are OME#49200. Have set of OME#49220 I belive from 1983 unknown model,are they interchangable with my other carbs? Thanks for any advice.
 
Individual carbs are different as far as I know you need to swap 1 with 1 2 with 2 etc
 
Now that my brain works after a good night sleep. You can't switch carbs on the bank with a diferent number carb. Take the #1 with the rounded idle mixture screw to a machine shop and get it removed. Then switch all the jets add to the rack.
You can also fix float posts with JB Weld. Do a search on this because it's been talked about here many times.
