Does that LJ80 have a single sidedraft carb? No matter, I'd suggest giving Rick at Hawk Strictly Suzuki a call |removethispart|@ 888-SAMURAI. Last I knew, he had some rebuild kit and, I think, rebuilt carbs for that engine.

Hope that helps.

If that doesn't work, I think you should sell me the LJ80! :)
