    sa tingin ko kelangan mong bumili mismo ng set na repair kita para sa carb mo kasi may mga gumagawa ng carb ay ang ginagawa pang emergency lang so sa makatuwid ay hindi ito pang matagalan, gaya na lang ng butterfly nyan at yung mga jets syempre mga hose na rin.

    madalas kasi sa pagawaan ng carb kung ano lang ang sira yun lang ang papalitan

    repair kit is a set of parts needed to overhaul such as carburetors and others.

    it composes of gaskets, o-rings and some brands include jets.

    i think keyster is a good repair kit for carburetors.

    kung gusto mong tumipid wag sakalin mas makakasama pa sa makina mo yan eh basta palitan mo na lang ang mga jets nyan na naaayon sa kung ano ang nakalagay dyan lam mo kasi kaya lumalakas sa gas ang makina dahil na rin yun mga jets nito ay malalaki na ang butas kesa sa dati nitong butas.

    Dear Injection Pump:

    Before you buy a carburetor repair kit, make sure you know the model and type of your carb. This will help as there are many very similar models and they have different parts in the repair kits.

    Second, have you ever repaired a carb before or is this your first time?

    If its your first time then I don't recommend doing it. There are too many things to learn and you should know how everything works before you touch your carb.

    Read a good book about carbs first so you get the theory down pat. Then carefully study from someone who knows what he is doing. I recommend John Passini's "Weber Carburetors".

    Then go onto the internet and search for the exact specs of your carb. Hopefully you will even find an exploded view. Study that carefully until you know every part by heart.

    If you don't study and attempt this blind chances are you will be worse off than before.

    As a rule, the half-literate roadside mechanics whose favorite tools are visegrips and hammers are not the people you want dismantling your carb. Those people should wrestle gorillas for a living rather than repair carbs.

    Carburetors (especially Webers) are precision devices for metering air and fuel. They do not take kindly to ignorance and brute force. Respect them and the skill and expertise that went into making them.

    This is the first day of the rest of your life.

    Good Luck!

    Best Regards,

    Dusky Lim

    Before attempting to repair a carb using a repair kit, you have to understand first how your carburetor works so as to easily identify the source of the problem. A modern day carburetor can be very complicated because it does not only mix fuel and air depending on how you blip the throttle. Other conditions apply like atmospheric pressure (my car's carb has an altitude compensator), and your engine's operating temperature (my car's carburetor delivers a slightly richer mixture on cold engine starts then goes back to a stoich mix on normal operating temps), among others.

    Also, carbs have sensitive parts so be careful in dismantling and reassembling them. One wrong turn of your screwdriver and you might end up with cracks (Did it on a Toyota 4k carb, he he he!). A carburetor handles gasoline so an improperly serviced carb could lead to an engine fire.
