Would anyone have one of these that I could buy? It's a float bowl cover for an HS carb. I'm looking for one with the same fuel line configuration.

Thanks in advance!

No, Joe Curto is on Long Island, Unless he went over to Apple. He did my carb shafts for me. Can't find the link right now but he is on the web. Maybe someone else has the link.

Nope, that's Joe Curto in College Pt, NY (you were right). I have that part I am pretty sure. It's yours for shipping. PM me your address.


Wait a minute.... HS4 or bigger? HS4 parts I have.

Shannon,

I'm checking with a very reliable source.

Actually two, so maybe we can get some help for you here in NE.

Shannon,

Carl said that he had one for an HS-4. Is that what you need? If not, what is this part from? An HS-3?

How in the world did I type a 3 when I meant an 8 ???

See why I don't work on my own engine after a 12 hour day???

Try Gary Martin in South Dakota. He rebuilt my ZS carbs to concours condition. One of the best. Nice guy. 605-391-2422

Sorry but negative on my end Shannon. I have a bag of spare SU bowl parts and two that are probably from the other side carb. So, as they say, "close, but no cigar".

Shannon,

I probably have one somewhere. I beleive all HS series carbs have the same size float bowls (I know all 2 thru 6 do) although they can be either tilted or horizontal. The tang/float level arm for the needle and seat on yours is different. Do you have another one of those? I think that some spridgits had the single feed that's vented just under the inlet. The orientation of the inlet may be different. If you still haven't found one PM me and I'll take a look this afternoon.
