King Demon carb.
« on: July 02, 2008 - 09:20:02 PM »
Hi guys I'm new here,but would like to give a warning to anyone thinking of buying a demon carb.I did have luck in the past with a 850 mighty demon.  But this time I bought a 1095 king demon rs -a very pricey carb.when I could'nt get it to run proper I took some things apart found that some metal shavings from threaded holes came out and into the needle of course blocking fuel flow.also found that all the threaded holes had shavings coming loose,and the secondary accelerator arm was bent and the diaphragm had a pin hole in it.For the cost I think that their quality control is horrible things did get fixed,but customer service is lacking.Just thought I'd share my experince.Gene.

That has been my experience as well with Demons some are just BAD , I talked to Summit about Demons as well & they have quit selling them due to poor quality

I too had issues with my Demon, over all poor quality.
Outside it looks as good as any carb, but as soon as you open it up for stupid things like flooding due to the fuel needle not seating, I knew I was in for a ride.

Never again, as a matter of fact I picked CP's brain on a good carb from his experience  :grinyes:
