    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.

I took the plunge

Well fellas, I told y'all how clean my carbs are and all that good stuff, well I decided being that i had the carbs already off i would clean it up a little (ya know poke the jets and all) without taking the carbs apart from each other. Once i got to fooling with em I said what the hell, and I seperated them, commenced to cleaning and vatting them in the carb bucket. Ive been working on them allllll day long (well every since I got outta church) used the carb article and seperated all the parts in diferent plastic childs school boxes (BTW you can get em at wally world and they work fine for parts at 88cents a piece)I got most all of it cleaned and had just enuff time to put #1 back together...WOOOOO HOOOOOO .......

Well I'm not a GS carb virgin anymore anfd to tell the truth it wasnt all that difficult, a little aggrevating at times but hey I looooved every minute of it

WHEEEEEEW!!!!

O.K. for a few questions, the air screw under that demon possessed plug, what do I set it to on the way back together?....and ya know that little o-ring on the air screw? uhhhhhhhh I lost one. reckon I can just use a o-ring from the hardware store provided its the right size?....for that matter the can I also do the same for the T-vents or do I need some special GS certified super duper specially manufactured o-rings?

Well I think thats it for now...
I had a ball Im hooked on GS's for life cant wait to build her one too

Now if I ever learn how to ride
 
I used o-rings from an auto parts store for the fuel tubes between the carbs. I understand you can do the same for the pilot air screw if you can find an o-ring that small.
 
If you need the O rings check with robert barr. If you check some of the older post you may get the old web address This is the current one
http://www.cycleorings.com/ $12 for a complete set of O rings. Its worth it just to not have to run all over town trying to find the correct sizes
 
That a God send...ya cant beat that.......Mr. Barr here I come
