Acrtic Cat Panther Mikuni carburetor upgrade

[@richardluce775]

TSS is handy for that frosty morning when you crack that frozen throttle and it quits instead of launching itself at x mph into your neighbors brand new truck.

[@toolmanmccann9430]

Nice work. Makes a big difference.

[@Nate-ti7ne]

Cool vid! I have a very similar Mikuni swap on my panther 500. It starts easy and runs with lots of power for a few minutes but then seems to run out of fuel. I’ll have to try mounting the carb more level like you did. Has it been running well on longer rides?

[@MrBriansAmazingWorld]

Seems like the longer and faster I run it the better it runs. Really fun to ride now. Is your fuel pump good? Or a crack in vacuum line on fuel pump?

[@BrownsMechanics]

ive got a 72' id like to do this to. uncles old sled it will fire up and run but the carbs are leaky and wont stay running long.

[@TurboChargedGaming]

nic video im in michigan and i still don't have as much snow as you

[@MrBriansAmazingWorld]

Still waiting on a decent amount. Had about 18 inches for a few days. The most in years. Last couple of years just a few inches here and there.

I JUST LOVE YOUR VIDEO!! I AM A OLD MAN IN SAN JOSE CALIFORNIA AND TRAVELLED BACKEAST AND PICKED UP TWO OLD CHEETAHS 340 WITH RUSTED CARBS. THANK YOU FOR POSTING. THEY CAME WITH WALBROS. I ALSO WANT TO BECOME A ROCK AND ROLL STAR. DO YOU LIKE MUSIC?

[@MrBriansAmazingWorld]

That's awesome... Clean out those carbs and get ready for winter! Love Rock and Roll!

[@frankstein4291]

Cool man did same thing to my 73 John Deere pitched that wda32 walbro out into the woods😜😂😂😂😂😂😂👍

[@MrBriansAmazingWorld]

Yeah not worth the trouble.

[@frankstein4291]

@@MrBriansAmazingWorld Yup the japanese came out with a far more superior carb than American engineers couldn't match! And as far as I know still haven't to this day! Why dont we have an American company making slide carbs???? Wtf huh? Diaphragm carbs only work for so long then you gotta buy a new kit and screw with em constantly...money grab is all they ever were! Junk!

[@alme4166]

Most folks don't understand how the walbro float carb works I guess you must be one of them. Had a few Kawasaki's people converted they seldom work as intended

[@nickpititto244]

Amazing job there man !! we got a 1974 Colombia C400, JLO fan-cooled twin; 398cc engine. We are giving the Walbro Diaphragm WDA-6 Carb rebuild a chance... if/when that fails, then we are 100% doing this... what Mikuni carb / fuel pump would you recommend?

[@MrBriansAmazingWorld]

Thank you ! I had a 72 panther 399 many years ago and loved riding that machine. Made me want one again and picked up these. Some of the carbs are much easier than others. The mikuni is very smooth. I think it is a 34mm. The fuel pump is just a simple vacuum pump used on most engines even today. Keep the tank clean and they run great.

[@dizzydoesitall]

Hey Do u know what the jetting is?

[@1leafs_canada]

Hey Bud, interested in selling the carb off the Polaris Star you have?

[@frankstein4291]

Got 2 walbro wda32 I sell ya with new rebuild kits in em!

[@pascalbegin9179]

Hi..good thing..i want to swap my 73 panther 340. Can you give me back parts number for throttle cable. Thx

[@MrBriansAmazingWorld]

Not sure off hand what it is but in the video I show you the part # on the cable.

[@haydenward8285]

[@haydenward8285]

i did it to mine and it just bogged all the time

[@haydenward8285]

[@haydenward8285]

the butterfly carb is the way to go

[@rustynutz4493]

Stupid Point ! Stupid Safety feature ! : ) great Video but I can't see You ? Camouflaged

[@brianhorn6462]

Hey man great stuff! I'm bringing back to life the same sled. If you would entertain some questions I have I would greatly appreciate it. Maybe exchange emails? Thanks!

[@MrBriansAmazingWorld]

Sure. What are you wondering? Great fun sled.

[@haydenward8285]

16:13 what a fool

[@frankstein4291]

Walbro carbs are junk! Mikuni all the way baby!😀👍

[@BrownsMechanics]

@@frankstein4291 both walbro carbs i tried wont even run. running is better than not running.

[@haydenward8285]
