WA Need a new (used) carburetor

Looking for a good running carburetor for an 82 gsl. Mine's totally worn out, not worth rebuilding. Washington/Oregon area preferred. Anybody know where I can find one? Thanks.

Junk yards are the usual source. You can buy them from time to time in the for sale section. Plan on rebuilding anything you buy.

Yeah the trouble is finding one that hasn't been setting around for more than a couple months so the gasoline doesn't turn into sludge and foul up everything. Guess I just have to keep searching.

I'm in Tacoma and might be willing to sell mine. It came off an 83 and I rebuilt it probably 6 months ago. Let me know if you are interested.
