new carb in my 04, what years are compatible????

[tron]

I need a new carb in my '04 and I don't want to spend $335 to get one from the factory. I would like to know if it matters what year bike the carb is off?

this site says the carb will work on any GZ250 http://www.bikebandit.com/search-produc ... 250%20carb (http://www.bikebandit.com/search-products?q=gz250%20carb)

there is also this one off an 01 on ebay, http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2001-SUZ ... _500wt_956 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2001-SUZUKI-GZ250-GZ-250-CARBURETOR-CARB-OEM-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem19c0e26833QQitemZ11061 0245683QQptZMotorcyclesQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories#ht_5 00wt_956)

thanks! the original was gunked up so i (stupidly) brought it into the dealer to get it cleaned and somehow they broke the small brass screw that lets gas in. i just bought that one on ebay and im going to have a friend help me put it in.

What was their excuise for not replacing it? Save your old one,it may come in handy for extra parts.

Surely.........Dealer broke it = Dealer fix it. :??:

the dealer claimed that they didn't know how the screw broke, but, that they suspected it was corrosion and thats why it was stuck. i talked to another shop and they agreed that it was probably broken by the dealer but there is no way to prove it.
