Carburetor Drain Kit
Finally, an easy, neat clean way to drain your carburetor float bowls. Why drain the float bowls, you say? The reasons are many. With the quality of today’s fuels, it doesn’t take long for electrolytic corrosion to start in your carbs (sludge). The average price a shop would charge to clean your carbs is about $200.00 in round dollars (ouch!).
Water, alcohol, benzene and other additives also tend to settle out of your fuel. Water in your vehicle’s carburetor can cause serious problems. Water will prevent the fuel from properly combusting in the engine causing your vehicle to run badly, bog down when accelerating or surge as the vehicle alternatively receives good fuel and fuel with water mixed in. If there is a large amount of water in your carburetor your engine will not run at all.
The float in your carburetor may be damaged by water in the fuel. Several pieces of your carburetor can rust if exposed to water.
When your float bowls and water traps get too full, engine damage may occur. Just a quick flick of the valve will purge your carbs and keep you running safe and strong. This is a high-quality kit that contains everything you need for installation other than a #21 drill bit and a 10-32 tap. The Carburetor Drain Kit valve body is aluminum zinc construction.
The #21 drill bit and 10 x 32 tap are available from Thunder Products for an additional $10
