| I found the source of my minor fuel leak at Carb. The plastic fuel inlet is cracked. Now what do I need to do? Can I purchase a new plastic port and have it just slide onto the brass OEM stub? Or am I going to need to remove the brass stub from the Carb. and replace it with a new complete brass port. It looks like a big hassle to remove the exsisting brass stub. Any Ideas? Can I just connect the fuel line to the brass port or is there more to it?
Thx |

| Went one step better (I hope) bought the Mikuni HSR42 from ya. One thing I am a little concerned with is the choke placement on this carb. It is on the RH side where my stock is on the LH. I have the carb installed and all hooked up but the choke cable setup seems a little odd. Really twisted around rather than a straight run as before.
I did change the spring and plunger. If I am missing something let me know ASAP as I will be putting the tanks back on tomorrrow.

| Does the enrichener knob pull out and go back in as easy as before without binding?
I have not come across or heard of anyone with an enrichener problem. |
