Hi guys, going to be doing a carb clean and rebuild so I'm researching what I need. It's my first time trying it. I'm going to be following along to a few video tutorials and one blog.
I was wondering, should I really get bigger jets like the blog says:"Replace the pilot jet with a new pilot jet, and go up one size from stock. This is a #40 for the '89-00 bikes and a #20 for the '01+. Don't bother trying to clean or reuse the old ones. They are easily clogged and cheap to replace."https://joshkarnes.blogspot.ie/2017/09/fixing-common-gs500-carburetor-issues.htmlI have an 00 GS500e
And do you know if this the rebuild kit I'll need: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1989-00-Suzuki-Carburetor-Carb-Repair-Rebuild-2-kits-gs500-gs500e-needle-oring/352222812752?hash=item52021d9a50:g:wi0AAOSwu4hazt-i
Is there any store you would recommend get a different one?
Does that kit include the jets or do I need to buy them separately? Where should I buy them?
Was also wondering whether I should get one of these carb sync tools and sync the carbs with it as part of the job?I never see it mentioned in the tutorials but there are seperate videos on doing that job.
Guess I need some JIS screwdrivers but not sure what size I need. Sizing on them seems strange.One video on doing the carbs on a cb500 suggested getting a P2x150 and a p3x150.
Any advice on that for the GS?
