    main jet washer?

    so, i am new to all of this and have just finished disassembling, cleaning, and reassembling the carburators. I tried to coerce the main jet washer out of the #2 carb and it broke into about 4 pieces. Is this a part I need to order from yamaha, or is it something I could find somewhere?
    I just don't feel like ordering it and having to wait to put the carbs back on the bike.
    thanks,
    steve

      main jet washer

      Washer "thickness" in either main jet (needle in diaphram) or on float bowl seat will make your carb either richer/leaner if not same. Does not have to be a Yam washer, just very close same dimensions.

      Ground down #8 washer to fit piolt needels on my 80G and has been just fine last 12,000 miles.
