    Carbureator problem

    Anyone have any ideas for this. The new to me 1979 GS1000S has apparently been fiddled with. Someone has installed at some point the pilot needle screw into the idle adjusting mixture needle screw. Not surprisingly the hole in the idle adjusting needle location is far too large to allow the idle needle screw to work any longer. Any ideas to restore the lost diameter
    or do I need new carb bodies? AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH. Thanks, Ray

        Cannot let a GS1000S be sidelined; the Price is Right . . . just pick them up.
