Hi all,
So, I tore into my carbs last night for the first time (1977 GS400), and cleaned the main & pilot jets, bowls, etc with carb cleaner. The jets are so damn small! They look bigger from web pics. Diaphragm looked good, jets ok, and o-ring on the emulsion tube could be freshened up (will do that later). I'll look over the carb papers again, but I didn't see any o-rings on the main & pilot jets (maybe they're deep down in the holes). Great night... radio documentary on Zappa for an hour in the garage.
I'm waiting for a call back from Z1 for larger pilot jets, but they say these small jets are hard to find (size 25, or one size over stock for my BS34 carbs). Any suggestions?
