1980 440 Drifter - Which Carb?
« on: February 13, 2013, 10:34:53 AM »
Hey all.  I came across a Drifter on the side of the road in the fall.  Sign on it said "free - and it runs!".  Of course I backed in and loaded it on with my boys... Only problem is that someone must have seen it before me and managed to take the carb and air box.  Looking through the site I have figured out that I am looking for a Mikuni econojet 32mm Carb.  I found a 34mm off of a skidoo citation 377.  Can anyone tell me if this carb will work? 
Thanks,

jimvw57

probably not. You'd most likely have to change the slide, and jets, plus adjust for the larger size carb.

Thanks, that is what I figured.  The same guy may have the right carb so I'll see what he has.
