Installation Guide

1. Disconnect the fuel line and remove the carburetor assembly from the engine. Clean the exterior thoroughly before disassembly.
2. Carefully disassemble the carburetor, noting the position and orientation of all components. Take photos if needed for reassembly reference.
3. Remove all old gaskets, seals, and the existing needle and seat assembly. Inspect the carburetor body for corrosion or damage.
4. Clean all metal components with carburetor cleaner and compressed air. Ensure all passages and jets are completely clear.
5. Install the new needle and seat assembly from the kit, ensuring proper seating and alignment. Tighten to manufacturer specifications.
6. Replace all gaskets and O-rings with new components from the kit. Do not reuse old gaskets even if they appear intact.
7. Reassemble the carburetor in reverse order, ensuring all screws and components are properly torqued. Avoid overtightening to prevent damage.
8. Reinstall the carburetor on the engine and reconnect the fuel line. Check for proper linkage movement and adjustment.
9. Prime the fuel system and start the engine. Allow it to warm up and check for any fuel leaks around gasket surfaces.
10. Adjust idle speed and mixture settings according to manufacturer specifications for optimal performance.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this kit fits my specific engine?
A: Cross-reference your engine's horsepower, year, and model (V4 or V6) with the compatibility table above. Verify your carburetor's original part number matches 438996, 435442, or 436852. If your model is listed but specifications differ, do not proceed with purchase.

Q: Why does this listing include six kits?
A: V6 engines have six carburetors (one per cylinder), and V4 engines have four. This package provides six kits to fully service a V6 engine. For V4 engines, you will have two spare kits for future maintenance.

Q: How often should carburetor kits be replaced?
A: Replace carburetor rebuild kits every 2–3 years or whenever you experience rough idling, poor fuel economy, hard starting, or fuel leaks. Ethanol-blended fuels may require more frequent rebuilds due to accelerated gasket deterioration.

Q: What are the signs that my carburetor needs rebuilding?
A: Common symptoms include difficulty starting, rough or uneven idle, poor throttle response, fuel leaking from carburetor gaskets, and black smoke from the exhaust. These issues often indicate worn gaskets, damaged needle and seat, or clogged passages.

Q: Can I use this kit on just one carburetor if only one is failing?
A: Yes, each kit is complete for one carburetor. However, it's recommended to rebuild all carburetors simultaneously to ensure balanced performance across all cylinders and prevent future inconsistencies.

Q: Is this an OEM part or aftermarket?
A: This listing is an aftermarket replacement part (not an OEM component). We build to OEM specifications using comparable-grade materials. Production is done in an ISO9002-certified facility, and each batch is inspected for consistent performance.
