GK76a Carb rebuild
Hi everybody.
I'm stripping, replacing the O' rings, and then rebuilding the carbs on my GK76. Any pointers on which order I should take it all apart and anything I should watch out for. All help is appreciated.
Many Thanks

Re: GK76a Carb rebuild
Work on a news paper and do one at a time.
Get a good screw driver that fits the screws perfect as they are made of cream cheese.
Take pictures on your phone for reference.
When you fit the o'rings lube them with fuel DO NOT fit them dry.
The old pilot screw o'ring tends to stay up inside its hole so clean this out and the refit the the pilot screw in the order of o'ring, washer, spring and then screw.
Turn the pilot screw in slowly it should not be locked down, it should only just be seated and then counted out or the seat will be damaged and the carbs will be knackered.
If you get stuck post up and people on here will help.
