Default Carb fastener info. prepare to reduce

always wondered why no one had posted the sizes to the bolts on the carbs since the originals love to strip.

each carb has a total of 12 fasteners heres the break down :

4 for the float bowl


4 for the diaphram cover



2 for the cut off valve cover located on the side of the carb




and 2 for the bracket that holds them all together


you could also replace the screws on choke bar arms theres a total of
3 screws here (pic shows two)



the carbs only use two sizes they are M4 0.7 and M5 0.8


4x float bowl covers M4 X 14mm
4x diaphragm cover M4 X 10mm
2x Cut off valve cover M4 X 8mm
2x Bracket bolts M5 X 10mm


(to do all carbs multiply by 4)

---------------
optional

3x choke arm thingy bolts M4 X 6mm



hope this helps somebody out

Nice to see someone else switching out those crappy phillips bolts. I did this on mine after having to remove all the old stripped ones with a damaged faster extractor.

I had to hit 4 different hardware stores to find all the ones i needed since they only had a few sets of each. Dont forget about the 8 that hold the airbox tray on. I think they were m6.
