Piston Hole Kz1000LTD 1982

Yes! I got the starter one ok. Will get the engine grounded. Thank you!

Both ground wires with the ring terminals connect o battery negativ.
The ground ring terminal have connect to the right engine case next to the upper rear engine mount.
The ground bullet connector to the main wiring loom.

I know it’s not a lot, but we have cranking and spark in all 4 cylinders.    youtube.com/shorts/I2NDuYqBdFw?si=yo_LxUG3XKnc6asJ

carbs next!

Another step checked off !  That's a good thing.

And forks are back in again (at the same level!!)…

 

Yeeehaw!

What was the problem with the forks?

I was missing one of the bottom little springs!

Carbs update. What a disaster carbs were! Missing some springs, missing one main jet gasket, dry gaskets everywhere and above all, a dented diapragm "case" that does not go up and down. Terrible... and the most probable cause for the original piston hole. 

Also, needle heights were wrong. All of them in position 4, rather than 2 (from the top, which indicates the manual). 

In any case; I reassembled everything today, and still need to get 1 new diaphragm. Also, I need to find one of the "thick" rubber o´ring that sits under the main jet. I understand order is jet, washer, o´ring. It has "fiber" or plastic jets, not brass. 

Any pointers on where can I find this o´ring I´m missing?

To get things a bit worse, I just realised one of the 4 mixture bolts is sheared inside its location.

the never ending adventure!

Ed (Nessism) does an "O" ring sets for the carbs, what a. Nightmare 

....how to remove the broken tips 

 

Thank you Scirocco. This looks great. 

I will try as soon as possible and see if this will work. My question, even before trying, is: How can the stuck bolt be extracted by pushing into that little hole, if the bolt is screwed into the carb body? 

Not questioning it will work or not, just curious.
