Hello,
I have an 81 xs400 that is almost ready to get up and running. I have done some searching here and on Google about carb diaphragms, mine are old but not punctured. How do you keep them flexible and working smoothly? I read that they are made of nitrile, is there something I can put on them or soak them in to keep them nice and flexible?
I read something about people using rubber renue stuff, silicone spray, and on this forum I saw someone soaking them in some red liquid, but not sure what it was, Mystery oil?
Thanks for the help.
