Source for less expensive needle valves

[Dr. Overkill]

Gang,

My carbs are leaking out the overflows. I used to be able to smack the carb bowl with a screwdriver handle and get it to seal up but that trick doesn't work any more. I haven't been able to find new needles for less than about $37 each. Anyone know of a reliable source for new needles for less $?

 

(Incidentally, I tried setting the floats lower and replaced the o-ring on the seat, thinking fuel might be seeping past it, but neither made a difference).

 

thanks!

That sounds kinda high especially if they are stock carbs..?

Dern, I already got 'em and installed 'em. A friend is sponsored by a large local shop, and got me his discount on them. Still not that cheap, but they're OEM.

 

Thanks anyway!

I bought an entire Moose rebuild kit for 15 bucks or so. Came with the needle and seat, stock main, stock pilot, stock pilot air bleed, bowl gasket, idle air screw, and a slide needle and E-clip. For the price of the needle and seat, it seems that the entire kit is a deal, even if you don't need all the parts. Make friends by giving the stock stuff away that your not gonna use
