Default Re: K1 carb refit after 4 years in storage

Since starting this thread, I've found the tax disc and it turns out it was last on the road in 2007, so actually 10 years off the road!

Ok I've managed to split the carb where the air screw goes in (just the outer part, no air leaks) - it's not for moving even with heat, drill & stud extractor!

Have decided to try them as they are in case the screw doesn't need adjusted. If it does i'm afraid i'll have to write off the rear carb and try to find another one or attempt to fix the original with parts from the s/h pair I got.

This will involve removing the JIS screws from the throttle butterflies, does anyone know what size the heads are? It seems there are 3 common JIS screw head sizes, P1 P2 and P3

Don't want to get a full set as they are about £10 each!

Cheers
Pete
