I have a '79 kz1000 LTD and lost the spring on an ajester screw thats behind the throttle cable at the carbs. I'm sure that it has to do with the idle ajestment because now the idle stops at deferant speeds and will idle down if I goose it. I know I need it but I can't find one because I don't know what it's called or the part #. Anyone know?

Go to www.babbitsonline.com and look at the fische on their website. If no luck go to the Kawasaki.com website.

You should get familiar with the parts breakdown at kawasaki.com.
Looks like there are 4 springs in that general area so take your pick.

Thanks. It's the throttle stop spring #24 part 16040-017. It's the little things that get you. But that's where I'm at now and that's a good thing after a yearand a half of work and part replacement. It's not as pretty as yours but it's getting there. I found it in the weeds and payed $200 for her. Already put $1200 in parts. $200 a month was my buget.
