I have acquired a set of BS38 carbs which I would like to use as a spare carb set for my 79 special.
The carbs appear to be of the later 78-79 model but have been built with some parts from earlier BS38s carbs
They have 4N8 Jet needles (74-75?)
Z8 Needle Jets (76-77?)
BS30/96 type Pilot jets (25) with no air holes ?
No Main jets were fitted
What i'd like to know is
1. Are the slides early or late (see pic ) and will they accept the later type Z2 needle jets and 502 jet needles ?
2. Is the supplied gasket correct for the fuel bowls which also appear to be of the late 78-79 type (see pic)
I have a sizable quantity of VM22210 type main and Pilot jets and the diaphragms seem to be sound.
