Title: Re: carburator help Post by justin_o_guy2 on 10/06/12 at 10:44:17 What color washer? Did you pull the jets? The main has a washer under it,, or, it will before it runs, Im no help at all on the O ring, sorry, When I work on things I have too little experience on to know exactly how it goes back together, I am super careful & organized taking it apart. I keep things that go together, together. I even tape or ties things in places, I put bolts back in holes, because I just cant remember some things,, Notes help, but my favorite aid is as I take things apart, I hold it oriented one way & lay parts out accordingly,

Title: Re: carburator help Post by LouSiana on 10/06/12 at 11:10:00 "Very small" reminds me at ##43 and 44 from the Ron Ayers posted site. I don't want to be offending but some problems are house made. If you manage to have left some parts, the work quality can't be that accurate. A Savage or S40 is not a horror at all if you know what you're doing.

Title: Re: carburator help Post by Digger on 10/06/12 at 18:36:54 Hi James, It's been over 10 years since I had the carb apart on my Savage, but I do recall seeing a tiny black rubber o-ring when I was cleaning the carb on one of my KLR650's recently.  It went on the pilot screw (otherwise known as the air screw), as I recall. Happy hunting!

Title: Re: carburator help Post by ToesNose on 10/08/12 at 04:30:49 Same here GyroBob, I'm a fan of taking pics before tearing stuff down.  It helped me recently restore a 20 year old universal workout station and there were multiple routes that a pully cable could have gone, would have been alot of unneeded trial and error without pics LOL.

I've even used the camera in the video mode while I narrated what I was doing to make sure my 65 year old brain could go back and reassemble things a month later.

Title: Re: carburator help Post by justin_o_guy2 on 10/08/12 at 08:09:19 So far, I havent been forced to lean on the new technologies for mechanic stuff, Seriously guys, can you Believe what we HAVE? Remember thingy TRacy & the "wrist Radio"? & REmember in the 60's, front of Popular Science was a big room, full of a new idea, a Laser.. & it was HUGE,, & now, you can get a laser that looks like a ball point pen. & we can take pictures or video & theres no "Send it to the lab to be developed",,  Its There,, Weve seen some almost magical developments,, &, I am not a magician,, I can use the camera, but, getting pics online? Not easy.,,
