Hi I've been having problems with a sticking slide so I am rebuilding the carbs and when I have removed the  linkages one of the little trumpets that sit inside the spring and drops into the connecting arm is missing , it's above the spring in the picture.
Please can anyone tell me where I can source this part or has anyone got one that I can buy.
The rebuild kit mixture screw is different to the original as it has a solid shaft,whereas the original is drilled up the center and has a hole in the shift, should I refit the original.?

philward:
I bought a cheap rebuild kit and before fitting, mic'ed the parts up and they were way out compared to the originals. General advice from members is to re-use original jets and fit upgraded o' rings/seals from Julie.
I have had success with 'Keyster' aftermarkets kits on past builds though - its the non branded kits that are rubbish I think. I think 'Tourmax' have good feedback too?

Bryanj:

Oldtuggle, how is your German? I can give you links to videos where a German bro reassembles his carbs similar to yours. The part on doing the basic setting is very instructive
