    So far; from what I have read here and on other forums and in real life at the meets……the Chinese carb kits are of very poor quality and should be passed over in favor of the genuine OMC stuff; at least for the time being.

    They are available on e-bay for under $10.00 at times….although the cheapest I can find right now is this one at $11.55 free shipping.

    Still…..stay away. unless you just want to try one to satisfy your curiosity. Maybe eventually the quality will improve and they will include a fuel inlet seat that can actually be used without re-tapping the threads first!
