Topic: I need the leaf spring that is in the carburetor bowls, what are they called?

[kentperdue]

I opened up my bowls and they were completely full of aluminum oxidation. So the leaf spring thing under the bowls are rusted and gone, what are they called and were do you get them?  Bike is a 72 cb500F

I circled the part in the diagram on two of the carbs, I need the leaf spring, and also the little thing that it attaches to. 

Thanks, Kent

Maybe you ought to find a decent set of the same carbs and buy them instead....

can you post a pic of where the part goes, I think I know what you are referring too but not sure. Have you checked out bikebandit??

I think I've seen it referred to as a "main jet holder."
