Leaking O-Ring on both carbs KZ440 C1
20 Aug 2023 07:09
Hi everyone.
As title said, I’ve a KZ440 model C1 and both carbs are leaking gasoline. I need to change both orings but I haven’t found anyone who can have them. Could you help me please?

I sell O-ring kits. What O-rings are leaking? And where on the planet are you located?

Hi! I’m located in Italy. The leaking orings are the biggest ones on both carbs (these on the perimeters). Sorry for non technical terms but I’m really new here

The float bowl O-rings? If so, they are 67mm ID x 1.0mm thick. Use superglue to hold them in the groove.
Since you are rebuilding the carbs, I strongly recommend a full rebuild. Ungang the carbs, soak the carb bodies and jets in a carb cleaner solvent, then reassemble with all new O-rings.
If you can't fine the needed parts in your local market, email me at nessism AT sbcgloabal DOT net
