DarrinGT Posted November 19, 2013 Share #1 Posted November 19, 2013 I am gonna need a set of Carb Holders for the 32MM Carbs. I am gong to do a Carb Swap this winter, just lining up the parts. Pinwall does not have any right now but will be watching for them there as well. If anyone has a set they could let go, please let me know. Thanks!

RedRider Posted November 19, 2013 Share #2 Posted November 19, 2013 Are you witnessing a leak? While they may look cracked, the carb boots are multilayered. Mine look horrible but are completely sealed. If you actually have a leak, I would replace with new, not used. RR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RR No leaks, I should have been more clear, I am replacing my 28MM Carbs with 32MM Carbs so I will need 32MM boots,... If I can find some nice used ones ill get them, if not I will check into new ones, I have plenty of time. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You did say in the original thread you were working with 32mm carbs. I looked right past that. Good luck with the upgrade. RR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Condor Posted November 20, 2013 Share #6 Posted November 20, 2013 I think you're going to have to bite the bullet and pick up an OEM set. I found cracks around the rim in the set I now have on the '99. I know they are multi-layered but there is nothing up around the carb throat. The cracks showed up when the carbs were mounted, but after removing them the cracks disappeared unless a little 'squeeze' was applied. I'm not saying they leaked, but there's a good chance they did. So a used set will look great until you really check closely. I also got tough with my local Y dealer and he shot me a price less than any I found on the net.
