Weird Carburetor

Need help figuring out what carb this is on a 03 blaster I believe have checked that yet it's a mikuni but the part that the tors would screw too is smaller it had a cap and everything to make it work and fits to on everything but defiantly does not look like the stock carb

 

[Goldfox_32]

Haven't checked the year of wheeler yet but it has stock hydros

Looks like an old zinc street bike carb. Probably pretty hard to pinpoint exactly what bike.

 

[speedyslyder]

a main jet # would help a lil pin pointing it out
and it looks like the choke knob is missing/fuel enrichment. ect, or you took it off but that would help as well

and if you could measure the mm diameter of it

 

[Goldfox_32]

Where do I measure and I'm taking it apart now to look at jet and yea choke is broke or missing lol and would it even work on a blaster or should I start looking to buy a carb

[Awk08]

or should I start looking to buy a carb

you answered that with the pic

solder repair of cracked brass float

thats a hot mess !!!!!!

do not reinstall that on a blaster, find a used stock vm26 carb

Some sob sold me a wheeler with this pos I'm looking for a stock carb now but what can I do with this one hang it on Christmas tree lol I was curious to what it went to to maybe sell it or give it away

 

[Goldfox_32]

The jet had thread tape on it wtf

 

[Awk08]

The jet had thread tape on it wtf

[speedyslyder]

i would still toss that carb.
cut your losses and get another carb/that has not been mangled.

[Goldfox_32]

Nice work bluesman thankyou now the mystery is at rest haha hey I got a carb for sale Wana buy it lol jk now I can put it in my shop with a name and never use it lol

 

[dirtysquared]

That is in fact a bayou 220 carb, I've ripped mine apart many times.

Throw it on eBay, they fetch a good price if their genuine.

It's amazing the lengths people will go to trying to get something running /somewhat rideable, especially if they are about to sell it.
The little CR I bought had straight water in the radiator, a bad hose clamp causing a leak and the wrong spark plug, if it were screwed all the way in it would almost touch the piston crown. We are talking maybe $10 worth of parts !

If you are havery trouble getting a vm26ss a vm28 from a 90's model yz80 has the same outer dimensions and bolts up, they aren't as simple to jet as the stocker tho.

 

[Goldfox_32]

I ordered a stock carb I have 3 blaster now I got this one for next to nothing so not out anything just time on waiting lol guy thought it was locked up but it was just a bad kick starter and obevously the wrong carb lol idk if it ever ran with that carb but I hope not it has compression and passed airleak now just need carb to get here and I'll have number 3 going

 

[deeeebeeeeee]

Sweet , it's always easier to go with the stock carb, especially if the bike is mostly stock, mikuni's cryptic needle numbering is enough to drive one away , especially since the vm28's in their oem yz80 form don't have an available p-6 needle jet.

But still interesting that the POwner put this carb on, poll could never get it jetted with that brazed float like that.
