  • WTB 1980-81 #3 Carb

    I need a #3 carb body for my XS. The other three were able to be saved but #3 was not. If you have a good carb body please let me know what you would take for it shipped to 74055 (Oklahoma). Thanks!

    What was wrong with it? I may want it for an experiment.

      Trying to extract the idle mixture jet and the casting broke. I drilled it o/s and made a threaded sleeve to install the new jet in but it's just enough off center that the jet will not enter the hole below. I could probably repair but would prefer to get a solid carb for it.

        Hmmm I don't think that would work for my experiment.

              Well I got my set to work so I will not be selling anything. I do know of a salvage yard where I can get you a body thats in rebuildable shape. I would charge $5.00 more than what they charge me (for my time) plus shipping. I would do the transaction with Paypal.
