    Can you use an Rt180 carb in a Blaster?

    So I have a few spare parts from an old Rt180, the carb openings are the exact same as the yamaha blasters, but are the other specs the same ie slide and spring tension? Plus the RT180 already has a idle adjustment screw and the RT 180 was also a 2 stroke, so rather than buy the kit to drill it...
