I just wanted to publically thank Joe Curto for simply terrific customer
service.

Joe rebuilt the Z-S carbs on my TR4 about 9 years ago.  The jet
assemblies are starting to weep a bit of gas, and I called him to see if
he could tell me the specs on the O-rings that I need to replace.  He
couldn't tell me the specs for the O-rings, and instead mailed me a new
set, along with gaskets for the float bowls.  This was all gratis for
being a previous customer.

I mailed him $5 for the parts, but also wanted to share the story with
this group.  We need to keep guys like Joe in business. NFI, yada yada
yada

BTW, the "dash number" and size specs on the two O-rings in the jet
assembly of a Z-S 175CD are as follows:

	Large:  -114  (13/16" OD, 5/8" ID, ~0.103" thick)
	Small:   -011  (7/16" OD, 5/16" ID, ~0.070" thick)

Now you know!
