    well i found one diffrence in the carb and its the slide diameter its about 0.27 smaller then the original . so i called the company and ask them to explain what to do if i need to replace the slide in the future and were i could get one if this one was to fail ? he said give me your info and i will put one in the mail today for you at no charge . and now you have a spare . now thats a good local outfit

    I always worry about small companies like that going out of business. Been burned before. But if its a good carb should last for many years.
