ok i am reassembling my carbs.
mikuni i body from a kawi sxi pro, same as sxr...
sorry for my poor descriptions not really sure what everything is exactly.
i have everything together except theres a big black gasket.
its rectangular and goes somewhere between the fuel pump and the carb.
where???
on the pulse line housing carb or on the return housing side carb?
btw the clear plastic diaphragm and the pump housing?
or btw the pump housing and the carb body?
or completely on the other carb btw the return line housing and the carb body

thx
i am doing this right now!!!

i think the black gasket goes btw the pump body and the carb body, there is also a weird o ring in there, like a circle with a line down the middle and some other parts in one multi chambered o ring.
it also sits directly over/around the carb filter.
is that the part of the housing it goes in???

Post some pics so we can see what you're talking about. You won't necessarily use off the gaskets that came in your kit.

ok anyone got a pic of dual mikuni sxi pro ,or sxr, carbs??
the pump side specifically.
when i took apart the pump and return housings, i am not sure i have them in teh right orientation... which nipples are supposed to point where is what i am tryin to figure out.
and where that black gasket goes...
thx.

ok found the mikuni .pdf
the black gasket i am talking about is the DIAPHRAGM, DAMPER.
part 5a in the diagram.
it goes btw the pump and the carb body. above the weird o-ring(part 6a), around the filter, but below the pump housing, fits into the carb body nicely.
no where near the clear plastic diaphragm.

ok pretty sure i got the diaphragm damper in the right place right on top of the o ring, it sits right into the carb body, and the pump body goes over it, just like in the diagram.
does the other carb, the one without the pump( only has the return line) also get both the diaphragm damper and the o ring. parts 5a and 6a
or does it only have the o ring, 6a
