I just ordered a carb from an 88lx for my 86dx. Is it going to work? :confused:

they look 98% the same except one part. i think it is responsible for AC.

I just called the shop and he said it probably wouldnt work. I hope it does. I don't have AC either.

The base gaskets might be different... are you getting the EFE carb spacer with the carb? You may only need to replace the gasket though.

I don't even know what that is. I was planning on swapping out carbs because mine is shot to hell. This one's probably got about half the mileage on it. It hasnt come in the mail yet though. If the base gaskets are different, is it still going to function properly?

yes it should... I'm just woried that the holes might be different and you'll end up with a coolant leak
