How to correctly interpret a parts fiche diagram

(1/4) > >>

Asterysk:
Would you mind helping me understand Honda's methodology on how they show exploded parts in the fiches, this attachment shows the carb components and it has different part numbers for the needles (items 19 & 20)

I can interpret this diagram in two ways :

A) That needle 19 is used for both the FR carbs (as shown by FR arrow) and needle 20 is for both the RR carbs

or

B) That needle 19 is used for both the LEFT carbs and needle 20 is used for both RIGHT carbs

[another way of asking the question is this:  "is the exploded diagram showing needle 19 for both FRONT carbs or both LEFT carbs"]

There isn't a clue in the part number descriptions

Can you possibly shed some light on how Honda thinks !! many thx

Brock:
That would seem to indicate different needles..

As a spare parts man from early Eighties in Chrysler/Mitsubishi you would come across a part # for left and # for right or front to back
When you went to price list 1 # would supersede to the other # or sometimes they would both supersede to the same new #
They could also list part # 19  #20 in the picture but give them the same # in the list 
When you got new fiches sometimes these changes would be updated
So I am thinking you may need more info  the parts could very well turn out to be the same
Hope this may help

I hadn't thought of that, will give the parts numbers to the Honda dealer after the holiday and see what they come back with, that would make life very easy if they show them superceded to be the same ! thankyou

No worries. Some times there is some trickery stuff in OEM  :||||
Interested to see how you get on
