Description
Overview:
The Needle Seating for the Zenith 13TC carburettor is a genuine Zenith brass component that provides the sealing surface for the float needle, controlling fuel flow into the carburettor bowl. Designed for JAP 2A and 2S engines used in older machinery, it restores stable fuelling and reliable starting. Precision‐machined brass resists wear and corrosion in petrol service. Supplied as unused old stock, surfaces may show cosmetic tarnish that does not affect performance. As a direct-fit replacement to OEM No. 016465, it helps address flooding, starvation, or erratic idle caused by a worn seat. Suitable for classic stationary engines and garden or light construction equipment built around JAP single‐cylinder units, it is a practical part for restoration and routine maintenance of the Zenith 13TC system.
