ID this carb? PIC
« on: July 30, 2009, 05:41:45 PM »
The bike's a supersport ('78).   The motor is a supersport, but NOT original for this bike.  I would be surprised if somehow the carb is somehow not from the bike or the current motor.....but who knows.  Someone said it's  from an automatic?  On the right side, the numbers:

        PD
 42A  [A]  QD2

Also, this doesn't seem to be an accelerator pump carb.....#2 looks just like the rest?  Am I wrong??

PD42A carbs are stock for the 77-78 750ss.  They do have an an accelerator pump on the #2 carb, but it's deceivingly small.  The casting for it in the #2 float bowl is about the diameter of a nickel.  Also, if you remove one of your pod filters, you'll notice a brass post on the inlet side of the carb throat. That's the squirter.
