Silentsoul Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 Has anyone ever run a set of OKO carbs? I was just wondering, because for 200 bucks you can get two 30mm d slides. Seems to good to be true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sangheraent Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 i ran them for 2 years. Good power delivery. Biggest problem I had was the floats were very picky. The carbs either dried out or overflowed all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silentsoul Posted May 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 So the pwk's are worth the extra 125.00 bucks, for what reasons? I am new to the whole carburetor game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sangheraent Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 my personal opinion. is no. but some of the guys on here will argue to death that it is. the only problem I ever had with mine for 2 years couple dune drips and a ton of farm riding was that the floats were finicky.

gotta_goatsfast Posted May 9, 2011 Report Share Posted May 9, 2011 I've ran them. The float assembly and needle valve is not adequate for higher powered machines. In simple terms, the bowls run dry. On something like a stock stroke or 4 mil dune port I would say there are other options. On mild engines that will not pull enough fuel to drain the bowls, then you would be wasting your money on any type of carbs because they won't make any more power than stock. What would my solution be? If your engine has stock port timings, then remove the TORS and dial in your jetting for pipes and "bolt on" mods. If your engine has internal modifications such as modified port timings longer stroke crankshaft, ect focused for low-mid or all around power then opt for PWK 28mm. If your engine has internal modifications such as modified port timings, increase in displacement, ect focused on mid-top or top end then carburetion will be anywhere from 33mm on up. If you feel the stockers are holding you back, search around the forums and in the for sale section. I picked up a pair of 35mm pwks with filters for under $200 shipped.
