gs 1000 carbs

[chuck hahn]

Go here and follow the VM rebuild tutorial on the right side. Get the orings from cycleorings.com and get the new intake manifold orings on page 3 as well. Set the bottom PILOT screws at around 7/8 out and the side MIXTURE screws at around 1 1/2 out from gently seated as your initial starting points. You fine tune with the side screws and leave the bottom ones alone. You can do the carbs for about 50 bucks yourself.

I did follow the tutorial and install orings from robert barr. The only thing i ran into is my intake boots didnt have orings. They didnt have the groove for them. Im assuming they are aftermarket maybe????? I also set the pilot and side mixture screws back to the way they were. Thanks for the advice

make some rubberized gasket material gaskets for the intakes then...they need to be 100% sealed as well.

Are you sayin turn the pilot screws 7/8 of a full turn from bottomed out? And 1.5 full turns on the side mixture screws?

[chuck hahn]

Yes. The bottom pilot screw sets the fuel flow for idle and up to about 1/8 to 1/4 throttle and it helps transition to the main circuit as your laying into the throttle. You set it and forget it. All fine tuning is done with the side mixture screws. Turning the screws in will richen the cylinder and out will lean the cylinder.

Seat the bottom ones gently..when they want to stop turning in DO NOT force them further..start counting out from there. Forcing them will break the points off them and can possibly block the port. the side ones are blunt and not so susseptable to breakage. But still dont ham fist those either.

Heres the tip removal tutorial. The intakes look ore the Kawasaki style than Suzuki parts. Go to orielleyr or Auto Zone and get a roll of the rubberized gasket material and cut gaskets for between the head and intakes. Its a grey roll and youll be able to tell its rubbery. Thats or source some Suzuki ones such as these from JBM.

seriously????? i would not even contemplate buying from a company that describes a fuel pilot screw as a "pointy type air screw"!!!!!
HAHAHAHA............
I have bought these from Z1 Enterprises and they work extremely well, no issues at all...
