I was the only one to bid and I had to bid 8 hours early as I had a doctor appointment and a family obligation this afternoon.

Greetings:

Check if the vendor has the different sizes of "mini-jets" under the Power-Thingie. No luck searching for Power jets have I. Surely if the one I had was a 20, they make a 10 and a 30... but nobody seems to know where to get 'em. Someone with New Old Stock might.

With enough screwing around the Powerjet could be made to work. Power valve systems work just fine on 4 strokes, but why bother? I have the same basic system on both my quads set up for quick main jets size changes and it works great for the altitude changes I go thru. For the Powerjet, I stick a couple of BB's in the hose to the Powerjet and it is then non-functional. Besides Powerjet is an advertising lie. It is a fuel economy feature and as such for our purposes a waste of time.

i've never heard of a powerjet. What exactly is it? what does it do?
If it don't fit, force it. If it breaks, it needed to be replaced anyway.

It is a system that adds fuel at close to WOT thru WOT. It allows the mid-range to be jetted leaner for fuel economy improvements without top end power lose. It functions a lot like the Power Valve system on Holley and other carbs. But the jets for the system seem to be impossible to find. Besides if you are hot rodding, who gives a rats * about fuel economy?

Very good buy Bear. I too am trying to locate jets. My CT 90 is way too rich but, I can't seem to find someone who says hey have the correct jet for the carb I have. Not to mention the jet that is installed has no markings on it. I suppose I just need to roll the dice.

The 1978 and 1979 CT-90 uses a 65 min jet and it is part number 99101-116-0650. This jet is the same number series as the Spree, Aero and Elite PA carb jet numbers.
