Frequently Asked Questions
A carburetor boot is a rubber connector that seals the intake tract between the carburetor and the engine's intake manifold. It prevents unmetered air from entering the engine and maintains proper fuel-air mixture.
Signs include: rough idle, lean running condition, vacuum leaks (hissing sounds), visible cracks or deterioration in the rubber, or difficulty starting. A cracked boot allows unmetered air into the engine.
The K&L 11-3659 has specific fitments. Always verify compatibility with your exact year, make, and model before purchasing. Check K&L's fitment chart or contact their customer service.
Carburetor boots typically last 5-10 years or longer, depending on climate, UV exposure, and fuel type. Rubber degrades over time, especially in hot climates or with ethanol fuel.
No, installation is straightforward for most riders. It typically involves removing 2-4 clamps and sliding the old boot off, then sliding the new one on and re-securing the clamps. Most people can complete it in 15-30 minutes.
