Who handles BS carb kits?

Really surprised Parts n More doesn't have these. I really don't need 3 kits. I just need 3 float bowl gaskets and 1 pilot jet. All are available from Alpha Sports, but jeeeeeeeeeezzz! Pilot jet $10.50 (I would pay that). Gaskets $9.20 ea. That I won't pay.

Dont Sudco have what you need at a cheaper price??

The problem with Sudco is you have to buy a minimum of 4 of the same size jets. Seems silly as I only need one.

You need ONE BS pilot jet? I might have a spare one.

#45 or 47.5?. I'm sure I have spares here you can have. Let me know what you need

Just for future reference - check these folks out at this eBay listing number - 140499963279 . That's $25 for a set of three kits - its a cheap way to get gaskets

, but as well so far the other items I've bought from them have been fine. Also - do a Google search using this string: 'eparts.us 260041' . Price is a higher in this case, but I've bought a few things off the eparts auction site - no issues and often lower prices than eBay, if they have something you need. No one seems to know about it so you are often the only bidder

Thanks for the offers! But seeings how I need the gaskets, I may as well buy the three kits that Allen pointed out. Thanks for the link Allen.
On the flip side, I am not buying anything till I get these blasted diaphragms to swell somehow. I have one soaking in gasoline right now. Put it in yesterday afternoon so I hope I know something soon.
Oh by the way, the pilot needed is a #45. According to my resources that would mean these carbs fit 75 - 77. The 74 uses the 47.5's.

I have 47.5's in my A model with the fuel screw set at 1/4 turn open, works fine.

Well CRAP! I just pulled the diaphragm / slide out of the gasoline soak. Now it's too big. I set it out in the sun. Maybe some evaporation will pull it back in as the gas dissipates from the rubber.

That did it. Fits perfectly!

Some how I managed to lose all 3 bowl drain caps. Anybody have any of those? If not I guess I'll order up 3 new ones as they show to be available.

You're having a bad time, aren't you,

don't worry, I LOST a whole ft caliper brake hose bracket this evening for no apparent reason, then it magically reappeared.

Whenever I tear down carbs, I use 3 seperate trays. I keep each carburetor and all it's related parts in it's own tray. None contained the drain plugs. Like I said, these have been sitting for about 3 years. The only thing I can think of is I must have removed the drain plugs in a different location before tearing them totally down. I'm sure they are here but I am also sure I will never find them. I say that because I have been through everything twice looking for the elusive gas cap gasket. I didn't see those either.

Coyote, if you were a woman you could have blamed it on your hormones!
