Wanted - Float needle valves and seats for BS38 carbs

[Partsbike]

Does anyone have working a set of float needle valves and seats new or otherwise for my 78 Special? I am trying to avoid MikesXS until I have a bigger order. Please contact me if so. Thanks!

OR ...

Call K&L Supply

OR...

Find a post "Carburettors from the grave" I put up eons ago. Rule of thumb is if there isn't a groove in the needle under microscopic inspection the seat is "probably" salvageable .

Happy hunting

I must have been anticipating your reply. Oddly enough I watched a video earlier today and K&L supply was mentioned and strongly recommended.

Better yet, I tried my hand at re-seating my needle valves and sure enough, fixed them right up. Bench tested good but I'll hold judgment until they're back on the bike.

Thanks for taking the time to respond. Cheers!
