    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.

gs1100 carbs rubber plug

On some of the carbs, there is no passage between the pilot jet tube.
Some of my 36CV's are that way. Perhaps you have 36CV carbs?

You're right, there is no passage under the pilot. I just measured them though, & they are 34's.
 
Whatever you do... don't add one as it won't get any gas. :eek:

Ive never seen a 34 mm Cv without them but theres lots of stuff Ive never seen
 
Here's a pic from the GS1100 manual. It looks like the fuel pickup through the main jet body is lower in the float bowl than is the pilot jet. I have read that these carbs are very sensitive to fuel height.

I don't know about "all 34mm CV carbs", but I have seen many other Mikuni CV carbs that don't have this plug. From my recollection, the main and pilot jets are not at the same height even on the ones without the plug, so no idea why they made the carbs this way on the 1100.
