Patinaed720 Posted December 6, 2024 Report Share Posted December 6, 2024 Can someone tell me if this the oem carb for an 86 4x4? I didn't really see any obvious stampings to indicate that its a Hitachi or whatever it comes with from the factory. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 6, 2024 Report Share Posted December 6, 2024 Looks like an ECC electronic controlled carburetor. I don't see anything inconsistent with it being on your '86. It was used for 3 years so could be from another earlier. They look the same. 1 Quote Link to comment
Sephakrid Posted December 6, 2024 Report Share Posted December 6, 2024 I agree, it looks like an ECC carb based on the two wires coming out above the fuel bowl. There should be an ink stamp on the side of the fuel bowl that says which variant of the DFP384 carb you have. Unfortunately, the stamp washes off easily so you may not be able to read it anymore. Just offhand, I'd say that carburetor looks correct for a 1986 with the Z24 engine. 1 Quote Link to comment
DwayneOxford Posted December 6, 2024 Report Share Posted December 6, 2024 Have oft wondered why Hitachi never stamped ID on their carbs. A soak in carb cleaner takes the inked ID off. Yours may be a China repop as the plastic looks bright. Had to really twist the choke pull off to get it right on mine. Is the dashpot plastic? Also had to inst. bigger ball in accelerator pump. 1 Quote Link to comment
