Never ran worth squat with that Chinese one.

Is it the nipple I circled in pink or yellow?

Needle valve, not nipples.. the needle valve is inside the carb bowl, actuated by the float.

I know what a needle valve is...

He said its spitting something out of the nipple kn top the valve cover. Trying to determine which one... one of those is the oil line and the other is the vent that goes to the airbox.

It should be a MIKUNI. For small engines (ATV, dirt bike, golf carts, etc) pretty much any OEM carburetor is either made by Mikuni or Keihin.

The "Mokini" is a chinese knock off. IF that's what came in it, i'd try and score a used OEM carb from someone on the forum. Lot of guys will part out their old engines and parts when they switch to clone motors.

Nice score! Some cart shops are awesome like that. I picked up a top for my G9 from the local shop for $10, just something they had laying around out back... they've won me :) I'll always try them first if I ever need anything before going online. Rather support local shops anyway especially when they're that good about helping!

so the carb on my other one is the minkuni,will try it tomorrow

There is no doubt that Kung Pao carbs are of far lesser quality than the Japanese ones BUT they will still work, it can just take a couple of tries to get a good one. I have been running on them on a couple of my old Columbias and they do fine. Granted, one didn't work right from the get go and I had to try again. $20 is $20. If you can't find a decent original I would try a different China carb.
