Hello,
I'm having issues with my accelerator pump.
Trying to rebuild carb, overlooked pump style when ordering the rebuild kit.

My carb has a pump with straight piece and the carb kit came with bent rod aka style B.
The straight one seems to be a ***** to find in Canada.

The question is, are these interchangeable?
Can i swap straight one with the bent one?
By the first sight they are same lenght and it could fit there, but the spring seems a little longer, are there any differences?

Sorry but unfortunately you'll need the correct design acceleration pump as there is also a matched up size difference within the acceleration part of the venturi discharge holes which will affect overall acceleration performance.

Hover the arrow mouse cursor over the "notes" of item number 12 and 20 for some information confirmation , https://www.mercruiserparts.com/bam/subassembly/30893/963/140
