Review on Carburetor Repair Kit 3V1-87122-0 3V1871220 3V1871220M for SouthMarine Tohatsu & Nissan Outboard Motor 4-Stroke 8HP 9.8HP MSF8A MSF9.8A NSF8A NSF9.8A Boat Engine by John Walker

Parts don't fit my carburetor

float chamber seal does not fit (you can see the difference if you look at the picture beside) The float is a universal adjustable float (original pre-installed) with no float sensor and no instructions on how to adjust. The needle valve will not work with the original float although it will fit the port and will flood the engine when starting. The side cover gasket will fit and the main jet o-ring will fit. So I ordered the matching kit from Tohatsu. The replacement kit actually has the Tohatsu part number for the kit on the box. It shouldn't. The Tohatsu part is more than double the price, but the replacement is basically useless.

Pros
  • Replaces Tohatsu and Nissan OEM part number: 3V1-87122-0 3V1871220 3V1871220M.
Cons
  • security
