Walbro WT-324
 
FYI,

I just picked two new WT-324's up from ebay. The seller has 5 more back up for sale at $6.99 each or $10 delivered. He will combine multiple for shipping.

Though some of y'all might be interested.

No personal interest, just a satisfied customer.

I bought one from that seller about 6 or 7 weeks ago, it was a smooth deal.

I have not used my carb yet.

Will these fit a G38? Do they have a choke?

Yes, they have a choke, high and low needles too.

Nice carb. I bought two also.

Why you.......I just went to get one and they are gone. Maybe he'll have more.:)

I sent him a message and asked if he had anymore. He put another ad up and I got two of them.:D

What size engines would these work on?

Is there a chart that tells what Walbro carbs are good for different size engines?

I use them on the 2300-3250 super tigers I convert to gas. They are a little large for the .90's

Wow Ken,

Thats exactly what I was wanting to do. I've got an older ST2500 (1.5cu.in.) that I got from a guy that had run it on gas but his set-up failed. The needle bearing came apart. I replaced the rod and was going to run it on glow but the other day I saw a guy at the field that did a home conversion on a Moki 1.8. I told him about the previous rod in my engine and he told me that he is not running a bearing rod in his engine. Instead he just runs 10:1 oil mix and the engine runs fine. He was flying up a storm. Was thinking of doing the same to the ST but unfortunately I didn't get the carb and adapter when I got the ST so I have been looking.

the only way a bearing will work is to machine the crank and put in a hard pin

Hi do you need to plug off the primer inlet for the carb to run good? Thanks.

KenLambert 03-17-2009 12:16 AM

RE: Walbro WT-324
 
yes , I crimp it then solder the end

RE: Walbro WT-324
 
I bought one of these carbs and it came with no high and low needles. I sent a message Friday night through ebay and have not received a response yet. He might not work weekends.
I will post the outcome of the transaction.

The seller did respond and is going to send the screws.

That's strange. I got two of the carbs and they look great. Well worth the cash. I have a G38 that doesn't have a choke. I'll swap carbs when I put it in a plane.

Do you have the ebay user name of this guy selling the carbs as I need one?

Thanks

This is a four year old thread.
There are several sellers on that big auction site selling the WT 324 and its replacement the WT 891 carbs. But not for the $6.00 price though but for around $25.00 instead.
You can also get a used carb and a rebuild kit too.

Which tube is which? There are two tubes and not sure which one to crimp.

av8tor1977 06-07-2015 11:01 AM

The one closest to the fuel pump is the inlet. The one closest to the regulator, (the cover with four little screws and a hole in it) is the one to close off. I solder them shut.
