Does anyone know where I might find a suitable source of the washers (both nylon/random plastic and brass) that go on the pivot points of the linkage that joins the front and rear carb butterflies? The plastic ones are split, and in my untidiness I've managed to lose one of the brass ones. I figure the plastic ones on the carbs currently in use will probably be in a similar state, and I'd rather not pull them to bits until the replacement set are installed and working correctly....

Got a diagram as mine have been split and parts sent around the world to peoples strange requests.

Either end of this wiggly bar. There's a brass pivot on both ends, the fixed side has a boss on it then a plastic washer, the bar fits next, followed by another plastic washer, and the brass washer you can see under the split pin.

I'll have a look tomorrow afternoon in my carb box of spares.

I have used spares if scott can't help.

Thanks guys, I was more looking to see if someone knew a reliable source of such bits rather than actually begging from someone's parts bin, but it would save me the job of measuring the things.... Cammo, I think Aus might be a little far to send the things... Anyway, it's still going to be a little while before I get the carbs done, my o-rings are ow back in Holland because my parents were away when UPS tried to deliver, and they don't open our local depot at weekends. Then I didn't get back to them quickly enough to stop them returning to sender, so it's another 13 Euros plus tax to have them reshipped. Pretty much wipes out the saving from going to CMS in the firstplace. I'm still sure they said today was the last day for collection... grr.

OK yes I have them and off the link arm. The two smaller nylon washers are cut and i assume for a reason so they look like a lock washer if you know what i mean and think this is to allow them to pivot. The two which you say are brass are actually steel. would you like both sets? If so let me know and could put them in the post for you.
