Please Note: These ay not fit some Mikuni-made OEM carburetors. !
Guess what - they are spot on dead right there. not sure I'd "bank" on either of
those two options - hope you prove me wrong

If you are doing a full tear down. I recommend investing in a gallon of carb soak. Pricey here for about $30.00 US, but reusable. Remove ALL rubber bits and excess gasket material then give them the full pentecostal immersion overnight They'll be plenty clean by morning. Inspect the little nooks and crannies and use the spray cleaner to work out any left over residue (usually not necessary).

No Sprock. With that statement i won't take my chances. I will just buy EOM. Thanks pmcg for the link to the gasket kit. Wooferdog i will do the pentecostal immersion. I never done this before so I'll make sure to take lots of pics and writing down everything so i can put it back in place and have no extra parts.

Is there anything i need to be in the look out for? Anything in advance could really make my life easier. Thanks
