1986 Yamaha XJ700 maxim X Liquid cooled

I'm examining the enricher plungers, there is a groove in the shaft, is there an oring that suppose to be there??? None of the 4 have them. Running rich thinking air leak in enricher circuit. And how and where do I order parts from this site? Been all over this site don't see any order forms thx Mucho

 

In the upper right corner of the site is the logo for XJ4EVER.com. Click on that and it will take you to Len Chacal's site, part of this site. There are no pictures of the parts like you would see on Partzilla but almost anything you could want for an XJ is there somewhere. If you don't find what you want you can start a conversation with Len and he will help you out. He is the best guy and site to do business with you will find anywhere, bar none.
Also there is a lot of helpful info and instructions of how the XJ's work and how to make them work better.

 

After looking at the partzilla fiche picture it does look like there should be an o-ring as you indicated. That's all I got, good luck.

 

Yah I seen that too Fuller56, got me thinking! LOL

 

Nope.........no o-ring on the plunger. There is a rubber DUST CAP seated on top of the brass screw-in SEAT that the plunger slides thru, but no o-ring....anywhere!

XJ650 Turbo models use an o-ring on the bottom of the brass SEAT, but it's the only model that does so.

 

Thanks Len.

 

Nope, no ring there... there is a non-replaceable rubber seal around the pin at the bottom though. I’ve seldom seen that go bad, but, it’s rubber so it CAN harden up. I mark sure to keep plungers with their respective bodies for rebuilds, so the rubber formed/mated to the surface at the bottom of the bore. Theoretically they should all be the same.... but just like pistons, rods, etc..... theoretically they are all the same, but the reality is that you don’t mix them up——
