    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.

Hello all , I have a 1981, Suzuki , GS-850-G , that I am doing a retro-mod on . While replacing the pilot jets I noticed that the black round rubber plug over them in the float bowel seem to fit real loose , not falling out , but not tight at all . Is this normal ? Should I get some new caps ? Any help would be appreciated ..........Thanks a million !

Found the answer on the old posts ! Lots of info on old posts that I should have looked up (STILL A NEWBIE !) , before asking Forum members . Sorry about that .

Here is my answer to my Question : These high quality rubber passage plugs will replace the cracked or rotted plugs in many Suzuki OEM Mikuni carburetors and replace OEM part number 13357-44080. The rubber plugs block off the pilot system on many OEM Suzuki carburetors forcing the pilot circuit to be fed from the main jet which allows more precise control of the idle mixture. Replace your worn out plugs and help restore your vintage bike to its original running condition .
