TwinH - WA-1 Carbs: Good News Bad News

rambos_ride

I just got done seriously scoping out each of the WA-1 carbs in my possesion.

Good News - 1 carb has already been completely rebuilt

Bad News - the other hasn't been rebuilt and the choke housing threads where the heat riser bolts to are bent, theres a u-shaped rod that attaches to the accelerator pump and that is broken.

So it looks like I need to locate the upper body/venturi that includes the choke housing or find another WA-1 for parts/rebuild.

Any chance someone has an upper portion of a WA-1 carb only?

if nothing else, any WA-1 will supply you with the parts you need. they always pop on eBay, for a song. I bought one a few years back just for a spare wa-1, an it came to me, and it was a 340 base...

I've picked up a few at swap meets- none are the right tag numbers, but as someone else said, I don't think that matters for the parts you want. I'll pop one in a box and mail it to you, if you give me your address- just reimburse for the postage when it gets there.
