    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...

I have a 1978 suzuki GS750E that I have just finished restoring. I also have a gas leak problem.... the crossovers between the carbs leak. I can't seem to find the o-rings for it. Can anyone out there help with a website where i might find these parts???
 
The fittings are called nipples they are a rubber coated fitting the Oring is part of the fitting NO O rings they are part # 13685-45030 and # 13685-45040 for the fuel nipple Both discontinued on bikebandit. I would try to clean them and reinstall with a light coating of fuel / oil resistant silicon
 
Another thought I don't know if it would work is to coat them with plastic/rubber dip-- used for tool handles If you are creative you could make some
 
My husband thought of the "silicone" already. At this
time I'm still trying to find the parts. I have a little time before the weather permits riding. Thanks for the info.
 
I'm looking for the rubber nipples that go on the crossovers between my carbs. I have a 1978 Suzuki GS750E with Mikuni carbs. Any help locating these or any ideas for making them would be helpful. Thanks
 
Thank you to everyone that gave info for my carb problem. I now have it solved. A machinist friend make me a new "T" connector for the main fuel to each set of carbs with a whole new sealing system. It works great!!!
