Fuel enrichener

Post by Bollmanhuck »

Hey guys, I'm new here and mainly created this account because when reassembling the donated super hawk 996 the "fuel enrichener" broke off at the threads inside the carburetor and i couldn't seem to find a replacement. All help and advice is appreciated.

Yes they are thank you! Unfortunately due to me being so new to this forum i am unable to private message him at this time to see if he still sells them or would mind shipping them to America.

Not sure m8 as gl_s_r made a set for me only last year

Incidentally Bollmanhuck, in the UK we refer to it as the choke. When I first read your topic I thought you were on about the lean/rich screws at the base of each carb

Sorry about calling it the wrong thing, i found more info when searching enrichener than choke.

Well actually technically you right, it is an enricher as that is exactly what it does. It richen's the mix by allowing more fuel hence the name enricher.

Alright so I found this page : http://www.polarispartshouse.com/oempar ... carburetor
And #28 looks like the correct part but i think i would have to drill it out a little bit.

Just buy a spare set of carbs, if they're complete they will have the part you need- or just fit the spare set.
I have a spare choke assembly, but postage to US is going to be more than it's worth.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
