No problem! Be careful with torch tip drills tho. You run the risk of taking material out of the jet and it’ll run way too rich!

Excellent video! This was very helpful and saved me a ton of reading/research. I'm working on a 98 Skidoo 380 Touring E, and one carburetor is bad. I bought another one which works fine except one of the air vents is plugged. Can a carburetor work ok with only one of the vents functioning?

Hmmm I’m not sure 🤔 if it’s the overflow vent line then I’d think it’s worth a shot 🤷🏻♂️

Great video! Do you have any tips on getting the blasted air box back on?
@ToyShopRestorations2 жыл бұрын
Maybe try some silicone spray, shot of whiskey, get your hand in between the air box and tank and push like hell! Lol but seriously if the rubber has shrunk maybe you’ll need to buy new boots. Or try a heat gun and get the rubber warm and push. This one went on a little stiff but with the correct tongue placement it went right on! Hope you get it!

Check to see if the pilots and main jets are the same. If they are then it’s probably less relevant. But if they’re not then you might need to do some digging 😅

Should I buy a carb kit incase bad gaskets I might find?
@ToyShopRestorations2 жыл бұрын
It’s never a bad idea. I would clean and reuse all the original jets but you might find something inside that looks bad that would need replaced. I personally don’t buy the kit first but if I get into a carb and realize I need something replaced then usually I’ll just wait it out and get the kit coming. If you’re new at doing carbs then I’d reassemble it while it’s fresh in your head and then wait for parts to come in then tear it apart again.

What size needle and seat. Dennis Kirk says two different part numbers. One is vm 28 511 1.5. The other is vm 28 163 1.5. What’s the difference. Mine are rubber tipped and one is torn. 1994 skidoo 670 40 mm
@ToyShopRestorations Жыл бұрын
I’m not going to be much help here. I did a little googling and it’s possible if you google “1994 skidoo 670 carb specs” you can find a forum and read thru it. “Dootalk.com” seemed to be pretty decent when I just googled it
@ToyShopRestorations Жыл бұрын
Another option is I know when I was working in a shop my boss had a little book and it had a ton of specs for all the skidoos in the 90’s. If you maybe went to a local shop and mention a little book maybe an older tech would have one? Kind of a long shot but figured I’d bring it up.

@@ToyShopRestorations fuel lines breaking or anything rusty. It's been sitting for a good 4 years, I had trouble with the filter box itself and seemed tedious to attempt without instructions
@ToyShopRestorations2 жыл бұрын
@@angelaguirre2725 hopefully there isn’t much rusty on it as it’s mostly plastic and aluminum. The air box is just the center strap between the carbs. Once that’s off the air box just pushes back. The top of the carbs you only break loose and unscrew the big aluminum cap. Don’t touch the steel nut and threaded piece on top of the cap. Then for fuel lines a good trick is to get fuels lines to twist on the bung before trying to pull it off. Fuel line is cheap anywhere you buy parts for sleds. Never a bad idea to replace iffy fuel lines anyways. Then there’s the clamp on the intake boot on the engine side of the carb. Other than that I think that’s all. Hopefully that helped. Sorry I don’t have the sled anymore and I’m going just off of memory 😅

Sometimes the jets are different between the cylinders from the factory. You can double check that the jets are the same. If they are then technically it doesn’t matter. But still you want to try to keep it the way it was.
