    Yeah interesting... but o-rings are shown in the service manual. When the carbs are up the right way these cylinders could cause a significant air leak into the pilot system.

    I don't have this O-Ring on my GSX carbs and it runs fine.. Get's covered with a gasket anyway?

    Right! I reckon everyone's have just disintegrated over time though ;) Manual wouldn't mention it for no reason. Yes there is a seal over it, but its not really sealed off from the pilot circuit. Waiting on other parts anyway so will install new o-rings when I can
