Description

Fuel Inlet Needle Valve for Wildcat WC22 26mm Round Slide Carburetors


The fuel inlet needle valve is a critical component that seals precisely inside the fuel inlet seat to regulate fuel flow into your carburetor bowl. Maintaining a proper seal ensures smooth engine performance and prevents flooding or fuel starvation.


A worn or damaged fuel inlet needle is one of the most common causes of carburetor tuning issues. Keeping spare inlet needles on hand helps you maintain optimal carburetor function and consistent engine tuning.


These high-quality fuel inlet needles are designed to fit most Knock-Off VM22 (Chikuni) carburetors, including the Wildcat WC22 26mm round slide models. Replace your worn needle valve to ensure reliable fuel delivery and improved throttle response.
