My 78 xs400e was running fine for a while, I took it on a 50 mile ride. The only issue it had was a hanging high idle once it warmed up - around 3000k. I let it sit for a couple of weeks and when I went to ride it again I was getting inconsistent and very little power, so that I felt unsafe to...

I am looking for a single intact bs34 carb body, ideally off a 78 or similar SOHC. Right or left side doesn't matter. Hardware, jets etc would be a bonus but not necessary. I blew out the pilot air screw hole on one of my carbs.
