Rebuilt the carbs with Joes kit this morning. No leaks so far. Nice stuff and I did notice a bit of a difference.
The new inside springs are stainless and just a tad longer so the choke seals fit a bit tighter but is a different material and fits smoother as well.
The bottom cork gasket is kinda rubber and cork, tough stuff and is a bit thicker than the other.
Stainless cotter keys provided.
Has been about 30 min or so and no leaks and I have worked the chokes etc etc.
Figured out my one choke return spring, it was weak, put on a spare I had and all seems fine now.
Now I am afraid to crank it..... Really.
Maybe this afternoon I will try. Before it started fine but did not want to keep running without lots of choke again and again. We'll see.
Joe will sell any kind of an SU carb kit or individual parts you may need. May I suggest he is as far as I am concerned the only source. Do it right the first time and save some work. His bits are not expensive.
