Gas leaking
Hi guys,
After more than one year away from home I have started to spoil my babe.
I pulled out carbs, cleaned everything (jets, plugs, etc) and synced them.
Bike cranked immediately, idle was awesome. I was pretty happy with my work and bike, until I have found some gas leaking.
At the beginning I thought were the clamps, then I thought was the hose, and finally I have discovered were the o rings on the t valve between carb 3 and 4.
I took everything again to replace them but now Im having an issue:
In my ****in country ( Argentina) imports are completely closed so I cannot find the original o rings.
There are some local companies who produce o rings but I dont know the size of them. Im expecting to get there with the original piece, but if it is worn, how do I expect them to give me the right size?
On the carburetor assy. parts for this part ( number 7) only it says: Gasket set.
Does anybody knows the size of this o rings?
Thank you guys if anybody can help.
Is hard to try to keep bikes when you cannot find the original parts.

Hi CJardine,
I have just seen your reply. Long time has passed. Sorry.
Finally I could solve the issue buying a new tee in Spain and telling my bro to bring it to me.
Buying from an Honda dealer? Have you ever read about Venezuela and Cuba's government policies? Ok, my country was same same ( as thai people say).
Now we have a new government and I hope buying a spare part will be as simple as getting to an Honda dealer.
Anyways,
Thks buddy!
