    I'm rebuilding the carbs on my 3LN. Does anyone now the size of the O rings on the pilot air screws or where I might be able to get some from please?

    Thanks matey.
    Allens Carburettors in the UK have some O rings that may do the job.
    Will try them first as the actual screws and springs are fine.
    Living in rip-off Britain Yamaha spares are sooooooooo much more expensive than the USA <!-- s:cry: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cry.gif" alt=":cry:" title="Crying or Very sad" /><!-- s:cry: -->

    You don't need OEM o-rings. You can take the old ones and bring them to a supplier. Just make sure you tell them the material needs to be gas/oil resistant. The normal rubber will not last much with Ethanol in our fuels these days.
