jfman Posted November 18, 2019 Share #1 Posted November 18, 2019 I lost the tiny clip that holds the rod going to the enrhichener mechanism on the right hand side fo the carbs for my bike. I cannot seem to find the part number for this clip on Yamaha diagrams. Anyone know the part number so I can order a new one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiCarl Posted November 18, 2019 Share #2 Posted November 18, 2019 I believe it's actually an E clip. When I needed one I went to an old timey auto parts store. They let me dig around in their box of loose clips until I found one that would work. Of course one that small will be at the very bottom of the box.......

I'd make sure yours is greater than 1.5mm https://www.amazon.com/WINGONEER-Stainless-Retaining-Circlip-Assortment/dp/B07C7YM9F3/ref=pd_ybh_a_4?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=RBVMHBD0G3VVVRTV9MMP Edited November 18, 2019 by SpencerPJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvmy40 Posted November 18, 2019 Share #4 Posted November 18, 2019 I picked up an assortment of small e clips from a local RC Race shop. The enricher rod uses one of the larger ones in that set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfman Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share #5 Posted November 19, 2019 So there is no OEM part number for this? I have to say I would rather overpay say 4$ for a clip from Yamaha than spend time hunting down a generic clip or buy a box of clips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDawson Posted November 19, 2019 Share #6 Posted November 19, 2019 It is a generic e-clip. Any good hardware store should have them for pennies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiCarl Posted November 19, 2019 Share #7 Posted November 19, 2019 So there is no OEM part number for this? Nope. You probably get it with part number 52. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prairiehammer Posted November 19, 2019 Share #8 Posted November 19, 2019 In addition to the E-clip there should be a plastic bushing and plastic washer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prairiehammer Posted November 23, 2019 Share #11 Posted November 23, 2019 A "redneck repair" or "roadside resourcefulness", depending on your level of OCD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did something like that for my sailboat motor. Sometimes, ya just gotta improvise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pasta Burner Posted April 2, 2020 Share #13 Posted April 2, 2020 I lost one too trying to put that damned plastic cover back over the valve cover. Used an alligator clip until I can get to a store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
