    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.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Well fellas, I screwed up. I had already successfully disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled three carbs. Then, last night, I was in a hurry to get the last one disassembled in in the dip. This morning I got up and pulled the parts out of the dip. Along with all my clean shiny metal bits, was my now severely swollen jet pilot plug. Apparently in my late night stupor, I tossed it in the dip with everything else. It is no longer useable. Does anybody happen to have one sitting around that I can have? Is there any place where I can buy a new one, or do I have to buy an entire carb rebuild kit for the one part? I already bought a set of o-rings, it would stink if I now had to by a whole rebuild kit. Please help. Thanks.
 
I saw that. They require a $25 minimum order. I'll have to go by the local store and see if I can get it there. Thank you.
 
Just the bottom plug for the pilot jet port? Whittle one out of cedar. I used wood plugs for a few years.
 
Wolfie,

You can buy those plugs at any suzuki dealer. I just bought one for my #4 carb a few weeks ago. I think it cost a couple of bucks (rip off of course).

Use humhead's link to Alpha sports, get the part # and call your dealer. IF the dealer has a minimum credit card order, drop by and pay cash.

If they are CV carbs, e-mail your address and I will send you one or two, I have a set of 3 CV carbs stripped down. Phil.
 
Thank you Phil. I just e-mailed you my address. I would have gone by the dealership today, but they were closed.
 
any good chance it will dry and shrink back?? those are some pretty volatile solvents...?
