Well, in case anyone was wondering. I've got GS's a-pleanty running around my household. THat said, I have a little peugeot that's having some trouble with puberty. I bought a new carb for it.... And I thought I had a DellOrto PHBG... I'm wrong.

Now, to pick your brains, what is this?

I wish you all luck. I need it! :-)
 
Sure looks to me like an older Mikuni VM..... You don't see too many of those with the "clamp" on style spigot. Maybe it's a Mikuni clone design.

Okey, color me retarded. now the next qeustion is.. why won't mikuni jets fit it? I thought Teikei were mikuni comptable?
 
did I spot an E.P.A. cap on the pilot mixture screw? what does that make it 77 or newer?
 
What year is the bike? Why the rejet? :twistedevil: Is there a turbo involved? :-\\\ :D

Holy crap. I hadn't even noticed. Time to drill :-) The bikes behaviour is exactly that of a bike with a clogged pilot circuit.

1978 Peugeot 103 SP. No turbo, but there's a tuned pipe, and two strokes!

Some Kaw's in the early 80's had TK carbs, there was very little available for them in the way of jets.
 
Those VM models are still available today, mostly used as racing carbs for snow sleds and 4wheelers from what ive read. Some guys over on the cafe forums were trying to affix them to their old Honduhs, with little success....

Yea, those are ODDBALL looking jets ! I work for a M/C dealer in parts, and we have a whole slew of jets for virtually every carb out there, and I can honestly say I have never seen jet configurations like the ones posted above. Mikuni VM type jets definately will NOT work...

That is definately some type of Mikuni VM clone carb..
 
I must do some digging...:-k I have a spare carb from a Puch...I'll have to take a look. It's a 2-stroke and for some reason...that set up looks familiar... :confused:
 
that carb looks identical to the mikuni on my 1971 ct1 175 yamaha
 
no no NO!! people!! if you would bother to actually read all the post and actually LOOK at the pictures you would clearly see the circle thing with TK in the middle.
its not a mikuni, its not a weber a holley a carter keihn or some sort of knock off. it is a TeiKei. they were used on some small Yamaha's and some other small scooters and mopeds but not on the 103 Nerobro is working on, it should have had a tiny little Delorto on it or a Gurtner but clearly someone back in the day had wanted to perk it up and changing the carb is a good way to do it.

sweet jesus! there are some insane hot rod parts for that critter!!

70cc water cooled with twin expansion chamber exhaust!!

I can, with absolute certainty, tell you that it is not a CT1 carb. I have a CT1. And I also have a LT2 in my garage. Both use Mikuni's with bolt on flanges.

Yes, it's a TK. For sure. I've never seen the TK logo before. I was only confused by the lack of a pilot screw. Now that I've found it... Well that's a different story.

Peugeots all came with Gurtner carbs. Those crazy pieces of crap. :-) At least it's not an encarwi.

It's not "someone back in the day" I bought my bike stock. I'm the one modifying it. Right now, it's got a Polini pipe, Polini reeds, some 19mm intake, that TK carb, and a Airsal 70CC kit.

Oh, and 25mph rated Chickenskins.

sounds like its time for a gixxer inverted front end and a late model mono shock swing arm with a nice fat 180/55-17 gum ball on back! LOL
