Frequently asked questions

What does the carburettor piston do?
This piston is the air valve inside the Zenith carburettor's suction chamber. It rises and falls with engine demand to vary the air passage, and this movement controls how much fuel is drawn through the jet.
Why would a carburettor piston need replacing?
A carburettor piston typically needs replacing if it's worn, scored, or sticking in its bore, which causes hesitation, poor throttle response, or an inconsistent idle. Wear usually happens gradually from years of use rather than sudden failure.
Which carburettor and engine is this piston designed for?
This piston is designed for the Zenith carburettor fitted to the 2.25L petrol engine. It's matched to that carburettor's suction chamber bore, so it isn't interchangeable with pistons from other carburettor types.
