Good one. No stuck parts. Will leave the bowl on to protect the posts.

 

Awesome!!! How much do I owe you, and when can you send it?

 

Good to know. Thanks!

 

The bowl looks different. Not sure if it's a match.

 

does look different there are usely 2 tubes going off the drain 1 is the drain screw the other is just a blank.

I think it was a cost saving thing when casting the bowls. 1 mold vs 2 molds to make the bowl

 

Then use your bowl on it so they look the same. All the Hitachi bowls will interchange. I included the bowl so there is no way Canada post can screw it up
I’m sending a request in the morning

 

Awesome! Thank you so much for all your help!!

 

I caught that in your post that you were going to put a bowl on it to protect the posts.

It’s on its way. Here’s the tracking number

 

Got it today! Everything looks good. Thanks again.

 

Glad I had one. One less xj becoming a parts bike

 

one more part becoming a bike too

 

Thanks again! How do I change that 2 carb to a three. I took the rails off and seperated everything, but I'm stuck with the springs? If that makes any sence.

 

Just swap the parts from your #3 to the replacement. Both #2 and #3 use exactly the same casting.

 

Is there an easy way to get the levers that the springs are attached to off? I don't want to break anything and they are stuck. Also, do I need to take the butterflies off to make all the correct changes?

 

Yes you need to remove the butterfly to swap the throttle shafts
