Brain Malfunction

I need a little help from someone.  I am looking for the exact measured thickness of the white spacer.  I have looked through the tech section from end to end and found all sorts of references to the spacer but not the actual thickness of it.  I am sure that sometime in the past it has been posted to a thread but I cannot find it.
The reason for asking is to confirm that the 3 washers I am including in the JETSET are adequate to substitute for the spacer.

I thought I had it initially but when I went to my box of assorted carb parts I found that I had  THREE WHITE SPACERS, and of course all three of them are different sizes...wouldn't ya just know it ? ? ?   Undecided Huh

Thanks gang.

There was, and it was recent.  I'll snoop a bit.  The vague memory I have of it tells me it was a lady asking a question, if that sparks anyone's recollection.

EDIT: http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?num=1214589769


"According to a graphic of the white spacer someone posted awhile ago, the actually white spacer is .267" or 6.78mm in diameter, .099" or 2.51mm thick and the center whole is .1195" or 3.04mm in diameter.
So I imagine the washer would be 1/4 to 1/3 as thick as some have used 2 or 3 to replace the OEM spacer"

I can't vouch for it, but that looks like someone did some research before they posted it.  It's a place to start.  Hope it helps.

My stock one is 0.10" thick (measured with a vernier caliper).  I replaced it with a .065" white nylon washer from Ace hardware.
