    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.

Hey Davidp, can you ask your friend if he can order 4 new Pilot Fuel Screws with springs? I don't want to have to buy the whole set of carbs if I can just buy the screws.
I've E-mailed a couple of places but have no reply.There for a VM 26 carb.
:-D

Pilot fuel screws can be had from Mikuni.... 16 bucks each last time I checked.
Order a rebuild kit for a 77-79 GS750. Get the K&L kit. It includes the pilot screw and spring, where as the kit for a 1000 does not. The only difference will be the main jet supplied (use your old one).
 
The kits are from K&L. Part number 18-2466, 77-79 GS750.

I got mine on ebay for $18 per kit.
 
I think first i'll try to machine 4 new ones.It's cheaper than $70-80 for just 4 screws. I can use the boss's lathe.And I have the dimensions.
Still no E-mail from prospective shops.

You getting all new everything for that price minus the mains which you don't need. It's a good deal if your rebuilding the carbs. If you do decide to get the kits, try Georgefix on eBay. Send him an email and tell him what your looking for. Tell him Hoomgar sent you ;)
