    Garth, don't you have, like, 42 sets of 80's carbs in various states of assembly?

    Pull an idle screw out of the XJ and an XS carb then see what they look like under a Mark I eyeball.

    Just in case: Don't mix them up!

        Okay, now that I have bags I'll just bring a whole set. I wanted to check the FJ needles and emulsion tubes since you can get parts for those carbs. Do you have any modeling clay?

            You're still on your long stretch of all work and no play aren't you? Sure, next Friday's good; wouldn't want to get my new helmet wet riding in the rain anyway. <snicker>
