New 4LO carb kits

#1 Post by LC Cnd » Sun Mar 25, 2018 3:51 am

For $53.02 Cnd to the door purchased a pair of Polish carb kits to rebuild a set of 26mm Mikunis. Came with 22.5 pilots and 220 mains. They appeared to be the best European Ebay priced ones so I thought I'd give it a go. The only issue that might be an issue is the carb needles; the side taper appear to match the originals I have. However the carb tips are lathed to a flatter ends. The originals are rounded. Not sure if the carb tips are essential for properly atomization but will find out - suspect not.

Something tells me you'll be fine. The needles have to stay in the needle jets, so length is important. Taper, as you know is also important. Keep us posted.
