To make a long story short, the prevoius owner run the air screw down tight and I broke the carb body trying to get it out. So, I need a new carb. Should I get a stocker, or are there "upgrades" that would be worth my time? It's a 2000 w/ a big gun exhaust.

 

Well, I guess the first question that you should ask yourself is how much money do I want to spend.....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] If you dont mind spending a few extra dollars this would be a very good time for an upgrade. I dont know about you, but I always look for a good excuse for an upgrade [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

A "friend" has been known to brake things just to tell his wife he need a "better" one......lol

 

Well, I didn't break it on purpose, but she doesn't need to know how much it could be fixed for, only what it was fixed for. I figure if I can get something for under $200 I'd be happy.

 

check the garage thread, there`s a lectron 44 on some ones shelf,
and there may be others

the tm 45 is a good carb for the $ if you can pick one up second hand, the lectron 46 is great but might be a bit over budget.

you could get a stock carb for a lot less than $200

 

Will there be a noticeable difference in going to either the TM or lectron over stock? What would be a fair price for either one?

 

whats the garage thread?

 

I can vouch for the Lectron for sure...it will make you smile.
