Title: Mikuni Carb Part# Mystery
Post by: moonpup on August 11, 2015, 09:52:22 AM

I'm currently in the process of cleaning and refurbishing several sets of 350 carbs and I find that one of them is missing a cable adjuster for the choke plunger.
 
I then go to the parts manual to look up the part number so I can order a new one and see that both it and the adjuster for the throttle cable (#8 in the pic below) have the same part number... 1622-5000.
 
The problem however, is that they are in fact NOT the same. The throttle cable adjuster is longer than the adjuster for the choke plunger. This is true for all 6 sets of 350 carbs I have. In the other pic., the throttle cable adjuster is on the left.
 
Does anybody know of a different part number for either of these?

Hi. Moonpup,

I've noticed that before on various Mikuni carbs, but I've never specifically looked at part numbers. I guess we can list this one alongside the 350 Choke Cap - 2 different types, one part number??

It''l be interesting to see if anyone out there has thye answer4.
