Hey Guys,
I ordered a rebuild kit from CCOT (it was close and I needed it fast). When I got the kit the accelerator pump boot was the wrong size. They apparently knew there was a problem with the kits having the wrong size boot, and sent it anyway. They said they didn't have the correct one, but had them in the past because they knew there was a problem. WHAT!
They gave me the name of the manufacturer and I tried to get one overnighted to me (I paid the shipping). It hasn't shown up yet.
Anyone know where I can get a good accelerator pump boot for an FJ40 made Sept. 1976. Anu US pump cover work? Help!
 
I used the Hygrade kit to rebuild mine. It came with the proper boot. any local parts stores near by? mine took a day to get. Is your boot still in one piece? it is changeable even after you rebuild the carb.
 
Thanks Curt. Yep, we have the usual auto parts stores here. I think the problem may have been that it's a Sept. 76 FJ and that splits two carb kits. My hole is 7/16". Did you get you rebuild kit from a local parts dealer?
 
I got my kit from a local chain here. Took either half a day or a day to get. the Hygrade 791b kit cost $40. Came with everything and way more stuff then i needed, even comes with the secondary diaphragm.
