Title: How much are jets for a carb initially?
Post by: Intrigued_440 on November 26, 2012, 03:25:47 PM
Just wondering how much jets cost. I'm buying a carb from someone else and all the jets are missing.

Typically a few bucks a piece.  Genuine Mikuni needle & seats are almost $20 if it's missing that.

Parts places like Denniskirk.com or a local snowmobile dealer could have them on hand, usually 2 or 3 bucks each. New jets are cheap enough, I usually put them in when cleaning a carb as they don't always come completely clean and running a wire through them is a good way to mess them up.

The needle jet is the most expensive... 16 to 20 bucks for us in Canada from what i;ve seen

Pilot and mains are very cheap usually..

Sno line will have them all I think

Well there is a guy I know that owns a snowmobile shop. He's trying to find me a carb, pretty sure they will have everything. I'll know tomorrow afternoon. I'll probably get it for alot cheaper than Snowline's carbs!

Unless you find the exact carb that belongs on your machine, you will more than likely be buying jets anyway. They are usually about $6 pair. I keep many sizes for some of my sleds. Should be really easy to get from any dealer or as said, dennis kirk. Also, chances are if it's been sitting a long time with fuel in it, it will be easier and faster to just change the jets instead of clean them.
