CB500K2 carb bit

[AshimotoK0]

I give my wife bits to sell on eBay to keep her sweet and to promote tolerance of by obsession.

She listed a 500 carb plate and lifter rod and someone message to see if she has brass bushes etc ...see pic ..but I can't even see anything like that on my own set of 627B carbs so she can't really help him out. I thought he may have been getting confused with later PD carbs (that I have no experience with) but he says its for a 500K2... She told him to join us on here and ask for help  but it's difficult conversing details on eBay (phone/email etc)  for the fear that eBay police get onto you for attempting to deal without going through them. This would deffo have been a question for Ken !

I do recognise the other bits.

Are they in the hole that the actuator bar goes through 🤔🤔🤔

That was my thought

Pretty sure they are.
Ted had an issue with his breaking up during his carb rebuild and posted photos of them. They become damaged when removing the locating dowl by drilling it out and puncturing right through the bush cracking it or when drilling the carb rail to insert a crub screw to hold the lifter rod in position to replace the dowl pin.

The retainer for the felt washers go on the carb bodies though, nothing to do with the carb rail spindle (assuming it is a similar arrangement to the 400/4).

Looking at the part with my camera microscope app ... I think this is what he means ..in which case the bushes are OK

And are those retainers with felt between them and the housing? If they are they look really difficult to remove as they appear to be staked!

But of course he's going to be buying the whole assembly from you Ash so he doesn't need to remove them

Not sure  Dave ...people often ask but don't end up buying.

When I got that out I found a whole bunch of 400 carbs stuff and set of yellow pass plated parts so I think I will put myself together another spiffing set of spare 400 carbs.

It would be good if someone makes the two bushes for the main carb spindle.
