Frustrated with your carb never working right and no amount of service, cleaning, and repair seems to get things going? Finding a suitable replacement carburetor can be quite the challenge. The PB100 engine was used in a Yale Forklift for a short time and a near identical aftermarket replacement has been found for the factory Nikki 210028 carb but is NOT CHEAP. You will need to swap some linkage hardware, however, this appears to be an identical carb to to the factory Nikki used on the S650G and S550G. You can Click Here to buy it on Amazon or you can search online for part number 901278894.

We have not tested the above carb but it does appear at the core to be identical to the OEM Nikki used on Satoh Tractors.

Some have found a variety of suitable replacement options that they were able to get work with some fabrication. A handful of working options can be found looking at past posts on our Facebook Page.

If you are at your wits end with your original carburetor and cannot afford to buy a new replacement option, here is an option a Satoh owner has shared, having success using a Solex H30/31 PICT carburetor which was used on 1200 to 1600cc air cooled Volkswagon engines. The larger VW engines often used a 34 PICT carburetor. Genuine Solex can be found used on ebay but brand new generic replacement H30/31 PICT carburetors can be found new from a variety of places online. Click Here to buy 30/31 PICT-3 at Amazon.
