Carburetor help

[Kristóf]

Hello! I have a 1988 Yamaha dt 125r, I've had problems with it but nothing major.
One of the problems is with the carburetor: the needle is missing two washers, one under the clip and one over the clip. As they don't sell those washers individually I decided that I'd make my own washers. The only problem is that I don't know that size they're supposed to be, so if anyone has a 1988 Yamaha dt125r or even a Tzr125 (they had the same carb I think) I would appreciate the sizes of those washers, especially the thickness.
Thanks!

These are the washers.

Hi @kristóf,

Mmm, problem indeed. This is worsened by the fact that this carb was only fitted to your year of DT. I don't know what the LC's ran and later models used a 28mm flat slide.

I can't imagine the thickness needs to be spot on, should match what other carbs use for thickness, possibly 0.1mm I'd have thought. See what others recommend though as I've just pulled that figure out of thin air and don't have my verniers handy.

Do you think the washers are compatible with the later models? I've looked at photos, they seem to be identical. Even if they aren't, It would be at least a great starting point to know the later model sizes.
