They are a bear to get running right if it sits for a while without being run. Once they do run correctly, however, they run fantastically on the trail. They handle radical angles very well. If you're looking for a reman, I got one from FC Products a couple years ago and it's performed superbly since then. Where in Colorado are you? I'm in Colorado Springs. ?_________ |_|_|\____\___ l-----[O]&#8801;&#8801;&#8801;&#8801;[O] ()_)()_)-----)_) Stay the Trail! Re: Carbuater trouble!

Some of those models had Holley's on them didn't they? Like the Cap'n said, it should be a Mikuni two barrel on there unless a previous owner switched it out. Can you tell us what carb you currently have? -Todd 1987 Montero 2.6l 5-speed (Sold...but I still miss her) 2008 Jeep Patriot Sport 4x4 Re: Carbuater trouble!

He said he switched out right before i bought it, but the 2 look the same. Re: Carbuater trouble!

The only bolt in replacement for the Mikuni is the Weber and those that claim it runs better are comparing the 20 year old Mikuni against a new Weber. There is no quick fix for HP for the Raider unless you go turbo.
