    Does anybody have a main jet washer for a 79 XS11 Special?

    Started cleaning my carbs and noticed I am missing a a main jet washer for a 79 XS11 Special. I found them online and don't mind paying for one. I just hate to pay the high shipping for a dollar part, If anybody has a spare one I can paypal you or send you a couple bucks in the mail. I believe the part number is 137-14153-00-00.
    Thanks, Doug

    I just took a washer and filed it down to fit. That was about twenty years ago and it's still in there and working just fine, thank you very much.

      The washer is not really that big of a deal. It only seals off the main jet to the carb body and nothing more and thickness is not much of a concern. If you cannot find one, go to a hardware store with one of the others and match it as close as possible. Try to get a brass or aluminum washer to fit and it should work.

      Once you un-can a can of worms, the only way to re-can them is with a bigger can.
