Carb rebuild kit stupidity problem

[Guerrero]

Hello.i finally came to thing,that i had to change inside of carbs.and here started the problem.as my country road departement are probobly not so smart,in papers it says that my Vision is 1986 year.and when i pfound where to order reb kit,i asked for one,that will fit my bike.so i bought kit for 1983.and now,when i got it shipped to me,i understand that my carbs are from 1982 Vision.i allready gave ,for me,huge amount of money-with shipping and country taxes-200usd.And i can't just take and buy 1982 kit,and forget about mine,bought allready.

so,after this long story,the question is-how many of parts will fit,and will not.i have not yet unpacked everithing,due to,maybe i can sell to some one,or somehow.i only see,that the rubber gasket does not fit.

what should i do?im really sad about this whole misundertanding

p.s. again,sorry for my bad english.dont be hard on me;)

Where did you buy your carb kits from ?? ... Some suppliers wrongly advertise kits as '83 when they are for an '82.

You may find that the kits you have ARE actually for an '82...check them before you reject them ;)

i bought kit from Canada-http://www.siriusconinc.com/
i really dont know,is it the right year on packages or not,but thing is that(ofcourse i checked) it doestn fit.on my box it says kit for 1983,but i need like on photo on 1982.thats the biggest problem.
my bad is that,before ordering i didnt look at picture of items,and did not compare with my carbs =(
so is there anithing i can do?i mean,does something fit for my carbs?or is it no use,and i just have to buy new for 82? :-[

Wow, I'm sorry to hear about that. I don't think there are many interchangeable parts. I'm sure you discovered the bowl gaskets don't work as well as other important elements. Maybe you could sell the kits on eBay and try to get some of your investment back?

thats sounds bad=( anyway im waiting for answer from e-shop where i bought it.i think there is buyback in 7 or something days.but still,i can get only like 50% of money,because of expensive shipping and country taxes=( and i dont think,that some one will buy on ebay fom me,if they can buy from the shop =)

thank god,contacted seller.and everithing is ok.i can send back kit,and get the right one.interesting thing,that for 83 year,the kit is for half cheaper than for 82.i think because,82 are much more out there,than 83?
am i right,that 82 has 64 hp engine,and 83 has 50hp?atleast somwhere i pfound interesting information like that.how can i check wich engine do i have?=) sorry,i understand that probobly this is very silly question.
