Interchangeable Carbs For 74 And 82??

[pbuzz3323]

Founfd out ny problem with my 1982 2 hp Carb.... Top needle..(slow speed) has stripped threads inside the carb body thus messing up the whole carb. I found a 1974 2hp that appears to be the same carb as mine. I can only tell by pictures of it not physically seeing it. Does anyone know if these 2 carbureators are interchangeable? They do appear to be identical but like I said its from a Pic only. This would sure save a huge headache and money for a brand new one.

The only way to be sure is to look up the two motors and compare the two carburetors. You can easily do that on the on-line parts manuals: Edit: The part numbers on identical carburetors changed. It is the individual parts that matter.

the numbers do not crossreference, so they are not alike, does not mean it won't work.
