Hi all,

  

 I am trying to find the source of a better quality rubber carb socket for  my Rotax 447.  Previously I've seen this remarked about on the list and I  think it was a company named JDM.  But I haven't found it in the archives  nor on ebay, which is where it was supposedly advertised.  Can anyone  help?

I bought their SS springs for my Titan Exhaust System.  They were expensive, but they are much, much better quality than the standard spring.

Kolb Friends â€“ 

 

JBM also sells after-market replacement rubber boots for the Bing carbs.  

 

Anybody have experience with these? My 912 is due for new carb boots, and the Rotax boots are somewhat expensive. The JBM website claims that their â€œexact replacementâ€ part for this item will outlast the Rotax boot, at less than half the cost. 

 

Am hoping someone on this List has bought these rubber boots from JBM, and can comment on their quality and longevity. 

 

Many thanks â€“

List,

 I have run JBM stuff on all my 2 strokes for over 7 years.I never had to replace a JBM rubber part.The 912 Rotax socket's rubber has been separating from the aluminum flanges.That does not happen with JBM's.

Amen to Gary's recommendations. On top of being very good parts, even their throttle cable boots and primer port covers are better than Rotax parts, they are nice people to deal with and they ship quickly. Two thumbs up.

Boy, that was a fast response!

  

 Thanks to all who responded to my quest for the carb rubber  socket.  In my older age I forgot the name of the supplier.  I  was thinking JDM Manufacturing when it was really JBM Industries.  Again,  thanks guys for the rapid response.
