In need of floats for my Dellorto PHM 40 for 1999 FE600E

Not sure where you are from, but I usually order my Dellorto parts from http://www.herdan.com/dellorto/ So far, he has always had every part in stock.

On the PBM 40 the floats can come set up together or independent.

Since you are working on the carb you may want to check and see if yours was fitted with a "idle emulsion tube" aka CDI jet. Part #4 on the diagram url below. This tube goes under the pilot or idle jet as Dellorto calls them. Members who have installed the optional emulsion tube have reported much easier starting where previously starting was very difficult. Some carbs came with them some did not.

Most of the starting problems due to lack of the emulsion tube have been on the smaller bikes, 400 & 470. I don't know if 600's would benefit but probably worth a try for about $7.00.

I found this place to have most the parts and fast shipping
