Intake manifold pk50

[stinger]

Hi guys,

Just a quick question, I tried to search but with no luck.

I want to put 19mm carburetor and I need to change intake manifold. Do I need to remove the engine or I can do it without removing?

And is this tricky to do it or ?

Thanks in advance.

No need to drop the whole thing. Let the shock mount loose from the back and swing the whole lump down for access to manifold nuts.

Don't know about the inlet size on PK50 though. If it's smaller than on Primavera, you'll have to drop n' split the engine to match it with the intake.

Thanks for fast response !

I’m good then, will try that later today.

The 50 uses a small carb and matching small manifold. If you go to a larger carb, you will have to fit a larger manifold as well. You will need a PK manifold with three mounting holes rather than the more common two hole ones.

And update from me.

I fix it. Just need to unscrew and release machine from shock absorber, lay it on left side and there is enough room to do the job. Rubber sealing which protect carburetor department from water is pain in the a** to put it in place but is doable.

Thank again

In my case it was three hole manifold, and it’s PK 50 XL 1996.

Just for the record, maybe some one will need this info in the future
