Hi guys, hope you can clarify for me.
I'm rebuilding the BS34 carbs on my XS and reading the tech section came across a few mentions of missing rubber washers on the air mix screws. I hit the shed and looked at mine, followed my Haynes manual which seems to call the 'air mixture screw' the 'pilot screw' (in the section for BS34 carbs).
-- A is that correct, are they the same piece, just different naming convention?
-- B - if that is the same thing, it shows in the diagram that there should be a washer and an o ring, on mine there is just a screw and a spring. - Should I therefore source the missing bits as per... http://heidentuning.com/p/28/2404/m...e-mixture-screw-with-spring-washer-and-o-ring ??
-- Or are they omitted on certain versions, such as a UK or Euro import (which mine is I think)?
Or have I got things mixed up?
On the upside, I also noted the fact that these carbs had rubber plugs that go in over the pilot jet, mine DOES have these so thats one less thing to worry about.
Thanks guys! Appreciate this forum enormously!
