Z900 A4 Carbs

#1 PostAuthor: bollypne » Fri Sep 21, 2007 8:10 am

Hi All, i am just putting back together an A4 Z900, i have 2 sets of carbs but not sure which is correct. 1st set has 2 feeds for fuel and what seems to be a link pipe between the carbs, flexible fuel pipe. This pipe sits between 1&2 and 3&4. Cable link sits at top of carbs. Throttle stop above carbs.

The other set of carbs have 1 feed for fuel and what seem to be 2 breather pipes. Cable link differs from 1st set with 1 cable link further down between the carbs. Throttle stop is underneath.

I think both are 26mm carbs and look identical apart from bits above.

Thanks

Someone will no doubt put me right but here is what I think..... Single feed is Z900 Z1/A/B. Z900A4 is twin feed as per Z1000A1/2.

All Z1s / Z900s / Z1000A1s and early Z1000A2s have 2 petrol feed pipes. Later Z1000A2s and all Z1000MK2s have a Vacuum fuel tap and single petrol feed pipe of bigger bore.
