Carb O-Rings & Float Valves
« on: March 24, 2022, 05:52:59 PM »
Hi all, am currently overhauling the carbs on my CB550K0 after it had been left standing too long and then wouldn`t start.

Bought overhaul kits some time ago and half the parts are wrong.

Can anyone confirm o-ring sizes for main jet and float valve ?
Also actually probably do need 4 new float valves, where can I get the correct ones ? which hopefully will come with o-rings...... Half the advertisers haven`t a clue.

Thanks,

Geoff

Hi Geoff. I sell the full Viton O ring carb kits for the 550K0, that's if you have the standard carbs fitted of course. I'm assuming you didn't buy the kit off me originally 🤔🤔🤔 Never had any complaints about bits not fitting 😂😂😂

Thanks, yes I`ve seen your kit on Ebay and no that`s not where I got them from. I only need main jet and float valve rings as the others are correct. Where best for float valves ? Mine look like they have a ring on them and I have suffered leaks.
