Odd carb jet, need help for id

[RUNMEDOWN]

Ordering jets and i pull the new carb to find this fiasco. And idea where to find a new one or am I going to need to drill it out?232960

Looks like I may have been swindled into a sheng way made keihin knock-off. Notice the threaded tip of the slow jet. A standard keihin jet wont work.

I was thinking it would not be an easy answer; given that I can only find a few picks of such a jet on Google. I am thinking I may just try to tap the housing to take a Keihein pilot jet. If it does not work I will need to replace the carb anyway since I can not find jets. (Stock says 35 pilot, I need a 40. The main jets do swap with stnd. Keihein)

I think Suddco has an online catalog. That will identify it for you but it's a 25$ minimum....

stick some drill bits in it and measure them. Then just drill it out, going up a size at a time. If you go to far, solder it back up and start over.

If you mess up... you needed a real carb anyways lol.


I did some searching on google images. I found 1 image that had a similar jet. Do a search for pd3 jet carburetor. Scroll to about the 10th row down, you'll see it. Maybe the site it's hosted on (a forum) can shed some light on it.

Yeah, I haven't seen a pilot jet like that, Keihin or Mikuni... weird. Also didn't know chinese knock-offs were coming with the actual word "Keihin" on the slide housing like that...That's dirty.

I know it's not an answer to your question but if I may, I would just get a proper Keihin and be done with it and save myself the hassle of trying to make a Keihin pilot jet work in that hermaphrodite carb.

Thanks for the help guys, i just picked up some micro drill bits and compared it to a #40 I had in the parts bin, got the exact size needed and drilled it out. Only to notice a pin hole in on of the hoses running to the accelerator pump, long story short; with new hoses there is not enough clearace next to the upper shock mount so I am back to square one and cleaning a genuine 27mm keihin carb up to use. Unless I can bend the intake a few mms to one side (heatgun?) The pumper carb wont fit.

Point of interest, specifically paragraph #2 where it asks "What can you do?" and how it goes on to say chinese manufacturers are selling knock-offs and passing them off as Mikuni and Keihin carbs.... Real dirty.... :mad:

But I did find this page, http://www.made-in-china.com/products-search/hot-china-products/Keihin_Carburetor.html

While I didn't look for your jet you need in the size you need, you might be able to find what you need there.
