PD41B/ PD42A
« on: July 22, 2023, 05:06:01 PM »
After getting sick of stripped holes I purchased a beautiful set of PD42As, as I had read they are interchangeable.

However, there is a small brass tube in front of the fuel line on the 42s, which isn’t present on the 41s.

Is this an air vent passage? Where should I run the vent to?

Thanks, I used that thread when rebuilding the original carbs. That thread has no info on this 2nd brass tube. I’m assuming that it might connect to the air cleaner but i don’t have one, so I’d like to know if I can clip it under the tank or something

The 41B's each have an individual bowl vent in the form of a tiny hole at the base of the main carb body above each bowl. The 42A's have a shared vent that converge at the smaller brass tube on the #2 carb. You will notice that the 42A's have an additional crossover rubber tube between the carbs that the 41B's do not have that join all of the bowl vents. The smaller brass tube on the 42A in stock trim had a small rubber tube approx 6" in length that routed up to the top of the air cleaner where it was held in place by a small clip/bracket. Just run a hose up and to the rear, maybe zip tie it to the bottom of the frame tube.

You’ve saved me again. Cheers. Float height is the same correct?
