No Idea though I would look into other ways of making that one work... What broke on it?

It is a POS design. Ever since I got this thing that part will not stay connected to the darn carb. It is a Royal PIA to get back on. Would be nice if I could just fine a good rubber hose the right size to replace that hard plastic crap they use on it.

get the diameter of the hose and go to the auto parts store and get a hose that will fit it. Then you can clamp the new hose over the hard piece and the softer hose onto the carb. Or hardware store they have different size hoses for connecting PVC water pipes they would be cheaper. Alleyoop

Definately a design flaw, lmao I almost punched a hole through the wall because this thing wouldn't fit snugly on the carb of my 244cc honda clone engine. You should notice a loss in performance also because when its not connected the air/fuel ratio would be out of wack. I just mounted a uni filter straight on the carb for the time being and I would also like to replace mine because without one it makes your scoot sound like a dirt bike at WOT!
