I am looking at my mikuni carb running rich and contemplating the next move. 1985 D50 power ram 2.6l. Did a compression test yesterday and had 145, 127, 145, 145. Squirted a little oil down 2 checked again and bang 175psi so I have a ring issue. This truck has been sitting for who knows how long so plan on driving as is. I have another 2.6 on another truck and the plan now is a rebuild of that and then into this truck. Rebuilding over the winter. At that time I'd probably go with the consensus on here and put in a weber carb.
My question now is does anyone still use a mikuni carb? Anyone rebuilt one to any degree of success? I have two extras and see kits and float kits are not to expensive so am thinking of trying a rebuild. I read all the changeover to Webers posts and the success posters are having, and wonder are there no Mikuni satisfied users out there? Thanks.
