    Help finding choke plunger for VM carbs

    Well guys, i made a pretty foolish mistake, and tried to take the easy route. Instead of just taking them all apart and dipping them in chem-dip. I tried the pine-sol idea, and it left me with super calcified carbs, and a choke plunger without a c-clip and top plastic piece. Where could i find a new choke plunger? I've looked on Z1 and cant seem to find one. Thanks in advance for any help!

    try your local suzuki dealer or ebay, or put an ad in the wanted forum
    1978 GS1085.

    Just remember, an opinion without 3.14 is just an onion!

      Why would Pine Sol eat the E clip and plastic bushing??

      I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

        I have one if you have a fuel T for a 550 to trade.

            Well i don't think the pine sol is what broke it, i just wanted to put in the backround of them. If i had a fuel T id take you up on your offer Tkent, and thanks sedelen. I guess ill be getting one from ebay.

              I've checked the fiches in the past for VM carb parts, seems to be not much available when it comes to the choke parts. Make sure you check around on E-bay, that one I posted was the first one I found, not necessarily the cheapest.

                I have lots of extra VM carb parts. Just send me a PM and I can get you one for a few bucks to cover postage.
