I just ordered a 813, i'll let you know how hard it is to tune. It should be about the same as a 990. From what i have read the only diff is the 813 has an acc pump.Stygian said:Is there a huge difference between the 813 and 998, I have thought about testing out the 813, heard it's harder to tune though than the 990?
All the Walbro carbs I listed have the traditional butterfly throttle plate. I am not aware of any slide style throttle plate carbs for these engines.sanos said:Great, the 813 and 998 are the ones you guys are talking about are the ones, and It was never mentioned what type they were. Thanks!
What some are saying is that the 998 is the new, revised & improved 813. I have read it has better fuel metering but I don't know if anyone can prove what the actual difference is.Stygian said:Is there a huge difference between the 813 and 998, I have thought about testing out the 813, heard it's harder to tune though than the 990?
So, are you saying you're not sure if they are slide carbs? The reason I ask is that car/truck with the reverse on the other thread (Gasser with reverse) states that in the list of specification features that it has a slide carburetor. I just want to know more about it and what it looks like and who makes them.

I am sure the Walbros listed are not slide carbs.sanos said:So, are you saying you're not sure if they are slide carbs?

hear that. i go all over the world via the www. translate with bing mostly. just reading articles-- never send anything. even bing has troubles with chinese- to english. i shure would like to see a little slide valve carb for these little engines. gain power tru more air flow. years ago, in the 80s, ford made a varable ventura carb. small carbs -the smaller hole has a stronger fuel signal @ lower rpm-s.- @ higher rpm-s the varable ventura would open up. that was years ago- i am not up on hi tec cars-stuff that much any more- i am certan theres stuff out now that frally builds milage- power. heck, like most of us pawns in life - i just try to keep the full size trucks-cars fed- with 4 to 437 a gallon gas!!!Dreggsta said:Hey Alfred, things def get lost in translation lol. That must be what happened to that fuelie sticker on our engines on tje pull start cover where it says "STROKE OLL" lol.
Typically when a part gets a new part number it will have tweaks and improvements made from further R&D and feedback from the people who use them. Dyno pulls would be the only way to prove an numeric increase, however if I see real life improvement while driving, thats all the proof I need. If the carb improves power delivery and responsiveness, then a HP increase is pointless, after all the 990 and 998 have the same venturi and bore diameters. HP potential should be identical as they are both limited by the same cfm ratings.Dreggsta said:What some are saying is that the 998 is the new, revised & improved 813.

Very easy to tune, no issues getting the same results from either Carb . Both carbs tune identical in my recent testingStygian said:Is there a huge difference between the 813 and 998, I have thought about testing out the 813, heard it's harder to tune though than the 990?
