Has anyone tried one the Chinese pwk copies? They seem to cheap to be any good?

I haven't tried one I'm afraid and I'm not sure I would bother either. Where about are you? Why not use the money for a new carb to get someone to look at it for you.

Ah well I've ordered one anyway if just to be able to make up my own mind about them, seems like a bit of pot luck from what I've found online. Some people think they're ok others don't. So only one way to find out I suppose lol.

I fitted a (very) cheap Chinese carb copy to my wifes Honda H100. It went straight on and ran perfectly. The float leaked after a year later but that was probably due to the E10 she was using. The float from the old carb fitted fine :-)

Fingers crossed the PWK works!

It arrived today and it looks absolutely spot on even got serial numbers. Got to make a new throttle cable I believe and get a reducer to connect water hoses together then hopefully I'll have it running again. 🤞
