hey i need a new carb for my 300ex, because my old one is messed up and cannot be fixed due to stripped screws and i can't figure it out anyway. so i have decided to just get a new carb because to send the quad into honda to get it fixed they will rack up the bill to 100+ bucks anyway. so my question is, what kind of carb should i get, and is there different sizes? if so should i just get the same size as the stock 300ex carb? also what is the price range and do they function in the same way as the stock one. thanks... oh yea and im trying to keep the price within 100 dollars.

i have a 400ex one if you want it. i will send you a pm with the details.

 

call

carbpartswarehouse - they will set you up.

 

Just curious - how much do carbs cost - I would have thought they would be a few hundred dollars.

By the way, I rejetted my motorcycle and the screws on the bowl were almost impossible to get out and I stripped the phillips head on a couple. I took a dremel and cut a slot in the screw head and used a slotted screw driver and they came right out with no problem. You may want to give that a try if you can.

 

if you buy a new screw driver set, and use the perfect size, they come out in a sinch, so easily you could probobly do it holding the screw driver with 2 fingers! lol. just goes to show ya, if you have the right tools it makes things alot easier. but eventually, from turning the screw back and forth everytime the carb is taken out to try to adjust somthing (in my case to try to fix it) they eventually ware a little bit everytime and finally there warn too much and the screw driver slips [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

 

and they are a few hundred dollars but i dont need any real good one, i just need a replacment one so a simple enough used 400ex carb will work fine for me
