Help with pilot jet info please...

[ddaniels]

1981 1000G stock jets. Can somebody please tell me what kind and size this is? Or, does anybody have any they want to sell to me? Thanks.

Can anybody help?

I don't have any, but I'd bet that Sudco does.

Hi,

I found this on some guy's website. Your carbs should be listed here:

Suzuki GS Series Carb Specs

From your "mega-welcome":

Sudco International - Carburetor parts, Classic & Late Model Replacement & Performance Parts, etc.

MotorcycleCarbs.com - Carburetor parts, etc.

Thank you for your indulgence,

Ok, I guess I'm an idiot, because I'm having trouble nailing down exactly what I need. From Sudco's website, combined with "that guy's" PDF, it looks like I have a BS34SS carb and I need Sudco's pilot jet number 004-058. But, I'm not getting a warm/fuzzy feeling about this.

Hi,

I'm looking on page 135 of their catalog for Mikuni pilot jets.

Applications: Kawasaki, Suzuki, Yamaha with OEM (BS) CV Carburetors.

Size #40 is their order number 004-058. Seems you have the right stuff.


Thank you for your indulgence,

Thanks for the warm fuzzy!!

The very cool part is that I succeeded in getting those stuck pilots out. Way easier than I thought it would be. I went and bought a screw extractor that looks like a tapered drill bit with the threads going backwards. Drilled a small pilot (punn intended) hole, tapped the extractor into it and only had to turn it out by hand. There were two stuck ones. The first one, I heated up, and sprayed PB blaster in there. Came right now. The second one, I skipped the heat and it still came right out. Now I guess I'm in waiting mode again until new pilots come in. Gotta get 'em ordered now that I know for sure what they are. And, the pilot that I pulled that was for the cylinder that wasn't firing was completely closed up.

I may have the pilot jets.
I'll have a look tomorrow.

I got one of those parrots from my Sous Chef when he went to Vegas. It's lovely. It tells me to go fvck myself.

Glad you finally got them out. You may want to dip the carbs again or at least spray them out really good just to make sure there are no bits of metal or other crap inside them.

Yep, I sprayed down inside all the pilot jet orifices and watched the carb cleaner come out the holes inside the throat. Seems to be hunky dorey. I'll do it again and hit it with some air before installing the jets though.

Sorry it was a joke.
