XC 430 1981 Mikuni Carb

Ok, guys I need a little help.
I'm based in the UK and have a 1981 Husky XC 430. The Carb on the Bike simply says it’s a Mikuni KOGYO, and after reading through various literature I have worked out that it’s a 38mm round sided carb (which model i don’t know).

Here is the problem.
The Bike when it is ticking drips fuel from the Carb, likewise if I leave the fuel tap on it will flood the engine when the bike isnt running.
On inspecting the Carb I think it more than likely that the brass fuel intake needle and jet seating may be a little worn and therefore never fully closes when the floats lift the brass flap hits the needle.


Can anybody help me with exactly which type of carb I have (I think its standard) and where I can hold of a replacement needle jet and seat.

I have trawled the internet and not found anything as yet .

Many thanks

Steve.

Mikuni 38 mm is the right carb for your xc 430.
I've found new cheap parts on USA ebay motors.

try this out. I am not sure if they ship to you. but you can buy all your carb tuning parts right here. Go to shop online, snowmobile, and then fuel systems. you have the VM style of mikuni carb. good luck.
