From the original specs, the WDA-34 was listed for the 440/21 engine and the carb was changed to the WRA-31 with the 440/22 engine.

Paul I am sincere about the offer drop me an email at jesse_jameswannabe@yahoo.com with your address I will get it off over the weekend and priority mail it on Monday and you can just give me the couple bucks for shipping when you send it back. I would just give you a deal on buying it but sorry I cant I have alot of parts and spare motors but not 1 extra walbro carb other than a few junk parts carbs from cats.

personnaly im jsut wondering if carbs are fine at first each time and get pluged with gum/varnish passing through cheap or bad fuel filters.

Danzig · Post by **Danzig** » Wed Jan 24, 2007 8:25 pm

Thanks for response Rodimus.

Me and Harley talked about this last night too. The filters are brandnew. The pickup was bought at Dennis Kirk. The inline filter was bought at a local sled/bike shop, clear with the brass innards. Its clean. Fuel lines are new, tank was cleaned with the log chain in it and rattled around. Then hosed out and visually checked to.

Got the throttle cable in for the CAt today also. Wrong one, central does not carry these, typo in the magazine. Called local sled shop, $75.00.

:huh:

Paul I got your mailing info just let me know if they can hook you up on the new carb if not I will mail mine out Monday. You can keep yours just return mine when you can. If it works out well for you keep it for the HOF ride if you like and then maile er back. I can always put another carb on mine if we get snow and I need to ride that sled after I break all my other gems.

That sucks on the cat cable I cant imagine them being different than any similar yr cats that have twins. Have you tried to cross them to other cat sleds around that yr if theres any that show the same you might get a set of carbs of ebay with a good cable for less than %75 but I know your in a rush here

Got a cable for the cat, thanks to Matt and Harley, Manufacturers supply!!. $27.00 w/ shipping. Bought it online tonight!! I just hope its the right one. We shall see.
Beats the hell out of $75.00.

Send the carb Andy, I havent heard anything from the place in Rockford tonight. They closed up and probably will let me know tomorrow.

I have the carb (WRA-31) apart right now again for the 1.5 millionth time and will get her cleaned again and give it a go tomorrow.

I am not worthy, what ever you need and I have, I will do my best to take care of you!!

Thank You Andy!!

Danzig · Post by **Danzig** » Thu Jan 25, 2007 3:40 am

She is cleaned again, torch tips to all port, pin holes, etc. Tomorrow is it for this mission. If it fails, I swear I will melt this carb down and sell it to some pygmies in New Guinea!!

Git Er Done '

Saying my prayers tonight guys!!

Thanks again Andy.

Brian, good luck on your problems too!!
