My KZ750 is now working! But...question was created by ShaneDude
There was dirt in the carbs and its all cleaned out. Prior to inspecting the carbs, I bought a K&L rebuild kit for my 77 KZ750 Twin B1. Are these kits any good?

Having never used the kits you are talking about, I can not say if they are or are not any good. In general when I have rebuilt carbs in the past I tend to reuse brass parts (jets, air/pilot screws, needles) unless they are damaged. I do replace o-rings and gaskets.

If there is dirt in the carbs, it likely came from the fuel tank. A high quality inline filter will help prevent a recurrence. A Golan super mini will filter smaller particles than just about any other filter, and it is cleanable, so you will not ever have to replace it.
