I am trying to find interchangable carb parts for the Hitachi on my '88 Justy. I uses the same accel. pump as the ea81 and I assume the ea82. But I don 't work on ea82's, so I am wondering if this float needle is used in their carbs.

 

Before anyone says, why don't you just get a carb. kit for the Justy?, the reason is: there isn't one. You have to buy the parts individually and it ends up costing $70-$90 to get them all. So if I can get a few of them in an $18 carb. kit for an ea82 I will be happier. A moderator on Justy proboards says he got a Justy carb. kit on Ebay once, but has no other info., so if someone knows the whereabouts of a Justy kit please let me know. Thanks.

That looks like it, but I can't say for sure.

that looks like the float which came in my kit for 85 BRAT. which was the wrong needle and seat for my carb, but we modified it to work on my BRAT.

Not sure about the needle and seat,sorta doubt it.

 

Have you tried here for a kit? They both list one.

Thanks for your replies.

 

Thanks naru for the links, those are perfect. I will post the info. on proboards.

You are welcome.Hope they have stock.

P.S. According to the Walker catalog,Justy needle/seats are not the same as ea-82.

Maybe is a Fool Question, but There it Goes:

 

Seeing Many of Us Swapping Carburetors on Bigger Engines Like EA81 and EA82 (And Some even in EJ22) is it Possible to Swap the Hitachi Carb from your Justy, with another one more Reliable?

 

I Don`t Believe a Weber could fit There, but Maybe Another one... For Example, the Carb from a EA81 Could Fit There? ... if So, Properly Jetted will Work Nice and it will be Easier to Get Parts, I Believe...

 

Kind Regards.

Hi Loyale 2.7,

 

Below is an EA-82 28/32 on a JDM Justy intake. It's bolt on. Pretty close in horsepower too.

Thank you for your Kind Answer! ...

 

So if That`s a Bolt-on, Maybe Using the Adaptor Plates for the EA Engines to Fit a Weber Carb can be Done in a Justy, isn`t it?

 

Maybe Properly Jetted a Weber Carb can make the Justy Engine to Run Better... Just an Idea.

We have been dicussing this on the Justy forum off and on for a while, and people have put Weber's on their Justy's. The Justy shares the ea82 manifold interface dimensions, hence Doug's bolt on. I exchanged a few emails with RedlineWeber, but they weren't terribly interested in helping determine the jetting required for the 1.2 L. They provide a kit for a 1.3L Honda, so the best Weber set-up so far appears to be the 1.3L kit with an ea82 manifold adapter. Jerry DeMoss is currently working on one right now I believe.

 

I know you are not a fan of Hitachi carburetors, but the stock Hitachi works fine on the Justy with maintenance, and can provide ~42 mpg with a well taken care of vehicle. Eventually we will probably all convert to the ea82 carb, Weber, or FI, but for now no one has dropped the $ on a new Weber kit, and since naru showed us where the Hitachi rebuild kits can be found, it might take a little longer. However, the Justy Hitachi is more complex and computer controlled than the ea series, so the simplicity of the Weber is awfully inviting. I will eventually Weber or FI, but most people looking for power in a Justy seem to do a turbo build.
