Honda CB Stock Type Float Bowl Drain Screw ~-A

$6.50 USD

Small part, but an important one. This float bowl drain screw with included O-ring allows you to properly drain the carburetor bowl without leaks, making maintenance and storage a lot easier.

Over time, original screws and seals can wear down, strip, or stop sealing correctly. Replacing them helps keep fuel contained and makes routine carb service more straightforward.

Key Features

• Float bowl drain screw with included O-ring
• Helps provide a proper seal during draining
• Ideal for maintenance, storage, and carb service
• Direct replacement for worn or damaged screws
• Simple install and removal
• Sold individually – order the quantity required

Frequently Asked Questions

How many Honda carburetor float-bowl drain screws are included and required?

One stock-type drain screw with one O-ring is included. Listed four-cylinder models need four to replace every carburetor drain screw, twin-cylinder models need two, and listed CB125 single-cylinder models need one.

Why must the drain screw be matched to the carburetor rather than only the motorcycle?

Honda used different carburetor families across models and years. Compare screw thread, tip, head and O-ring position with the removed part and confirm the carburetor identification before installation.

How tight should a carburetor drain screw be?

Seat it only enough to seal the O-ring; excessive torque can damage the screw or crack the float bowl. Replace a hardened O-ring, clean the seat and test for fuel leakage before riding.
