New carburetor source

Post by pumpguy »

Where's the best place to buy a new genuine Keihin PWK 33 or 35 carburetor? Both quality and price?

Much of what I have found online cautions about fakes, and sellers offering both genuine and fakes, that I'm leery about who is selling what. And of course the best price and availability time is important too.

Thanks for all replies.

These are genuine carbs and every time I've bought from them it was quick shipping.

Yes, I am familiar with Jetsrus. Thanks for this reply.

What's the story about SUDCO? Do they sell the genuine article? I think their prices are a little better. Also found another place catering to the ATV and PWC market offering Keihin carbs. Prices seem good. Don't remember their name right now; have to look through URL history.

Anybody have other sources for genuine Keihn PWK 33 or 35 carbs?

Sudco primarily sells bulk to dealers. I do see the PWK35 in their price list for 242, while it's listed for 219 at jetsrus.

I've been dealing with jetsrus for years and have not one single complaint. Great group over there.

There are a lot of counterfeit PWK carbs with Sudco stickers on Ebay. Don't trust them! Only buy from a reputable shop.

So you are now saying that the company Sudco is not a seller of fake carburetors?

You seeing a counterfeit sticker on a counterfeit POS illegal Chinese carburetor does not mean that Sudco has a link on their website where they sell counterfeit carburetor, as you alleged.

No need to come on here saying they sell BS.

In response to my question to an Amazon seller asking if his $215.00 Keihin PWK 35 was a genuine Keihn, or an aftermarket replica, I was told:

"It is a genuine Keihin carb, used it on my son's 1986 Honda Odyssey FL 350 and it works perfect."

So I guess that proves it's the genuine article.

The bigger problem for me is selling a used carb for $215
