it's interesting that "straight" plungers (left one on the upper pic) seem to have same diameter "jamming cylinder", but normally they do work without any o-ring.
who knows, maybe different materials and/or more snug fit of the working surfaces...

I just installed the o-ring from the kit. It seems to fit.
The plunger is much tighter fit with the o-ring, the plunger didn't want to go into the carb bore until I screwed in the bolt and the spring forced it in. Plunger moves with more resistance but still smoothly. I think its good, no time to ride yet though.
Still interested if somebody has some concluding info. Even on XT600.de they have 20 pictures of the 3AJ carb disassembled but for some reason never took out the starter plunger...
