Carburetor/Crankcase Drain Kit

Here is an item that every carbureted Snowmobile,
Motorcycle, ATV and Watercraft should have.
 

   Finally an easy, neat clean way to drain your carburetor float bowls.  Why drain the float bowls, you say?  The reasons are many.  With the quality of today's fuels, it doesn't take long for electrolytic corrosion to start in your carbs (sludge).  The average price a shop would charge to clean your carbs is about $200.00 in round dollars (ouch!).  Water, alcohol, benzenes and other additives also tend to settle out of your fuel.  When your float bowls and water traps get too full, engine damage may occur.  Just a quick flick of the valve will purge your carbs and keep you running safe and strong.   This is a high quality kit that contains everything you need for installation (additional fuel taps required for carburetors without water traps - see below photos).  The valve body is chemical resistant nylon with a viton sealing ball rated at 125 psi.
This kit can also be used as a crankcase drain.

Installing 1/4 x 28 fitting into Float Bowl:

Drill and tap float bowl to 1/4 x 28 staying in between the floats.  The lower on the float bowl you can install the fittings, the better.  JB weld may be used on the outside of the fitting if desired.

 Attach the drain kit to each 1/4 x 28 fitting.  Cut any hose to the desired length.

Carburetors with water traps:

 Water traps can be identified as short pieces of hose usually 3” to 4” in length attached to the bottom of your float bowls with a plug in the end of them. 

Remove the water traps, attach the drain kit to the fittings your water traps were on.  Cut any hose to
the desired length.
