Opened up the float chambers on my bike ( katana ) 4 cylinder,4 carbs.

bike was missing,lacking fuel so I cleaned out the jets etc ( which were a little mucky )..but.....

the main jets are fine,but where the pilot jets are theres black rubber 'stops' blocking the entry to the pilot jets..they pop out and squeeze back in, do you know what or why they are there ? , is it a restriction ?

please someone help me quick,Im ready to build it back up !

cheers

Ohhh a Katana. One of my all time favorites. Is it a 1000 or 1100.

The thousand was the one I always wanted cos it had slide carbs rather than cv's.

Can't help with your problem but any chance of posting a few pics


Seconded
