Product Overview
A stored KZ440 may leak from the bowls, idle unevenly, foul plugs, or refuse to start because old fuel hardened the seals and clogged the metering circuits. Two kits let the mechanic service both carburetors at the same time so one fresh side is not paired with one worn side.
Rebuild-kit contents vary by supplier. Compare every gasket, O-ring, needle, and jet shown with the original carburetors, and do not assume the supplied jets are correct without checking markings.
This is an aftermarket replacement part and is not manufactured or supplied by the original equipment brand.
