Carb rubbers

#1 PostAuthor: mark d » Fri Mar 01, 2024 8:00 pm

Hi just ordered some new carb rubbers from carb to engine on my z1000 a1 as it was popping and banging as I sprayed some carb cleaner on all4 when it was running and the engine revved up so there must of been some bad seals my question is do the new rubbers bolt straight on without any sealants or do they need some sort of gasket seal ?

Depends how good the surface they are bolting too is, scratches, pitted etc. A smear of rtv won't hurt either way.
