I may be needing a Carb and manifold for a model 94. What can I expect to pay for used ones in good condition ?

Depends on where you purchase them. Friends & club members will give you a better price than say, eBay. I’ve seen asking prices go for more than what they sell, so if you go the eBay route, it never hurts to make a lower offer, as long as it’s not low enough to be an insult. I’ve purchased items from a few repeated sellers and if they know or I remind them that I’ve purchased several other items from them,, they tend to give me a better price. Also if the seller is another club member, tell them it’s you!

Are you looking for a 24mm carb or something larger? I may have a 24mm which I can pass on to you very reasonably, in part as a thank you to all your help in the past. I’m not sure, without digging, if I have an intake manifold but I’ll look. Probably won’t be able to get out there until later tomorrow. I have to drive an hour south to pick my mom up from the hospital & take here home. Will likely be spending the night with her as well. I’ll let you know tomorrow. But post to me and keep me reminddd do I don’t forget, with all I have going on. Victor

Just let me know what you need Ed. Clarence

Thank you to both you guys. I'm going to look at a rough 94 this weekend. The owner was not sure if he had the carb or manifold. That was my reason for asking. There may be a lot more things missing. I just wanted to get an idea on $$$$
Thanks again. Will keep posted

Not me, Clarence. This thread started by "bulfrog" with one "L".

Ed

Clarence, does that change your reply now ??? lol

Clarence mite forget but doesn't change his mind. I still owe Bruce a care package and can't spell. -----Clarence

I’m still happy to help you. Lots of folks here have helped me, both with parts & sages advice! Even if you aren’t the Captain.

I’ll look tomorrow when I get home, for an intake manifold and let you know if I have one!

What’s your mailing address??? Victor

I did not just loose it, I lost it a long time ago. -------------- Clarence

For those who may be a little confused. I changed my username from bulfrog to yamadaka to eliminate confusion

OK. I don’t have a 24mm carb. I have 3 extra 26mm. The kind for the Model 98/02 Road Toads and the Model O3 Wombat. But they are all slip mount and not flange mount.

I do have a 4 bolt Super Rat intake. Basically the same as a Model 94. And it is Flange mount. You are welcome to that if you want it. It was from the Super Rat I upgraded to reed valve.

You can buy a “flange to slip mount” adapter for a flange mount intake. If you want a 26mm carb, I can build it to Model 94 specs for you. It will have a slightly larger slide & needle but I can jet it for the Wombat. Let me know. Victor

. . . and "Yamadaka" and I have exchanged private messages . . . where-in I thanked him for taking the step to reduce the on-line confusion regarding "who-is-who" for us both. He is indeed a gentleman and a scholar - as we used to say back just after the middle of the last century!

Ed

I think I remember when Yamadaka (Bulfrog) first joined the group, he told us his choice of moniker was based on a history with Bultacos. Not expecting to cause confusion. I find most of the participants of this chat group to be "gentlemen and scholars"

I think you are correct. He didn't realize there was already someone registered with the group with a connection to the Bullfrog name which started in 1971.

Ed

WOW, you are correct my Ossa friend. No Buls now just Yammies

I have that 93 manifold if you want it. Same size carb on the 93 & 94. So the intakes are the same, except for the numbers in them. Victor

Victor,

Thanks, but I found a carb and manifold. I have a Bassani pipe but I think it might be to far gone. I don't do any welding so I have to figure out what route to go. Try and get someone to weld for me OR find a Wombat pipe in decent shape OR find a wombat pipe that is crappy with a good header and use that but I will still need someone to cut and weld

Well that’s good news! Keep us posted on your progress! And Chrck with Bruce Young. He might have a pipe you can use! Victor

Victor, Just FYI. The 94 manifold is a little longer than the 93 manifold, possible to clear the larger fins on the 94 cylinder. I have never tried to put a 93 manifold onto a 94 cylinder, so I don't know if there is any clearance problem or not. Just for your information.

Dirty_Rat, good to know. I have a 94 in the wings. I can give it a physical try and report back! Victor
