That looks identical to a spree carb. Can you take more pictures?

I pulled my spree carb and took side by side pics. the main and I think only differences is the "butt hole" is slightly larger on the spree and one of the needle holes screws on and and on the spree one has a clip that holds it down.

It looked like this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIC-B7QoKFI Without soaking it I wasnt certain how to clean it. If it matches the intake side you could bolt on the Spree carb and rejet it.

Exactly, give it a go or bring it by again.

The "needle valve" on the lower left has totally different connections. The sky on the right screws down there the spree just sits in there and has a clip to hold it in. Also the sky has a round thing where the spree has 2 needles. Ill snap pics in the am.
