Thanks to all the help from this forum I have been able to get my barn find 1981 GS550L to a,,, running-ish state. Issue is I just can't seem to keep it running under 2k RPM. Here it is running feels stable and could run forever. I turned the idle down under 2k. It just continues to lower and lower until it just dies. For video of above see link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vF2FYEu3S3Nwbkj5zmFM20TLjRv-mVBY/view?usp=sharing I am not sure that it matters but before the above I noticed that cylinder 3,4 was kind of cold 70F so I leaned out the mix and they are now up to 130-140F. So now the four temps seems to stabilize at: 1 = 135 2 = 205 3 = 130 4 = 140 Not sure if this is correct, but it did start to run better. Not sure I am doing the right thing, or if it is even related, but seemed to be a good idea. Any ideas I would love to hear them.

I have a 1981 Suzuki GS550L. The clutch seems to not be working/moving. In my research and prep work I am looking for replacement parts, but I have found a part on the schematic that I am unable to find a name or part number for (Green Arrow). I may or may not need this part, and it might just need a good cleaning, but would be great to know the name and number for this item to be ready to replace it if needed. So I turn to you awesome people and hope someone knows what it is.

Hi all, I've been looking all over to find a service manual for my GSX, with no luck what so ever. I need to change most of the gaskets but have little to none experience with the enormous 16valve complicated engine. Anyone have some advice on how to find a workshop manual for this engine, please let me know! See also attached pictures.
