If you join the yahoo group "cb400F" there is a PDF in the files section that explains how to make your own.

Thanks Paul,

I had a go at making mine - but to be honest not a success for various reasons. A bit of a find but I got a job lot of small rubber 'O' rings which appeared to be exactly the size required.... and used those.

Gotta admit to being unsure of the exact job of felt vs rubber, but did pack a dollop of grease within the flanged washer 'housing'. Suspect my rubber o-rings more air tight - but really of little concern as in the atmospheric / choke side of the carb.
