E-Z-GO Clays Car Carburetor Jet Size

On FJ400D-equipped carbureted E-Z-GO Clays Car models, the documented factory carburetor uses a #106 main jet and #52 pilot jet. Confirm the engine before ordering, because earlier carbureted versions can use different jetting and later EFI versions have no carburetor jets.

Clays Car carburetor jet sizes at a glance

Main jet

Earlier EH35C: #82; later FJ400D: #106

Pilot jet

Earlier EH35C: #42; later FJ400D: #52

Altitude

Use the altitude jet chart for the exact engine and carburetor generation

Before ordering

Identify the engine and carburetor, then read the number stamped on the existing brass jet.

Lean symptoms

Needing choke, surging or load bog can also come from a clogged passage, weak fuel supply or intake leak.

Rich symptoms

Black smoke or plug fouling can also come from a stuck choke, high float level or leaking needle valve.

How to choose the correct E-Z-GO Clays Car jet

Confirm that this E-Z-GO Clays Car matches the carbureted gasoline version described here.
Engine/application: Model-year-specific gasoline engine. Carburetor: Model-year-specific carburetor.
Remove the bowl and jets only after cleaning the carburetor exterior. Read the stamped jet number; do not estimate jet size from hole diameter or appearance.
Main jet: #82 on the documented 350 cc EH35C Clays Car/ST Sport application. Altitude guidance: Check the exact E-Z-GO parts manual for altitude-specific main-jet alternatives.
Pilot jet: #42 on the documented 350 cc EH35C Clays Car/ST Sport application. If it only runs with choke or will not idle, clean the pilot circuit and check for an intake leak before changing the jet size.
After fitting the correct jets, verify warm idle, clean takeoff and full-load response. If the problem remains, check fuel level, float, needle valve, choke and fuel-pump delivery before changing jet size again.

Clays Car jetting symptoms

Needs choke to run

Clean the pilot and main circuits and check fuel supply and an intake leak before fitting a larger jet.

Bogs under load

A restricted main jet can cause this, but so can weak pump flow, low bowl fuel level or a blocked filter.

Black smoke / fouled plug

Check choke position, float level and needle sealing before assuming the main jet is too large.

Runs well only at low speed

Main-jet or main-nozzle restriction becomes more likely once the pilot circuit is known to be clear.

Poor idle only

The pilot circuit matters much more than the main jet at idle.

High-altitude operation

Use the model-specific elevation chart where available; do not guess how many jet sizes to reduce.

Clays Car jet specifications

Model-specific note

Identify EH35C versus FJ400D before ordering; the jet numbers are not interchangeable.

E-Z-GO Clays Car carburetor jet FAQ

What is the E-Z-GO Clays Car main jet size?

#82 on the documented 350 cc EH35C Clays Car/ST Sport application. The documented ST Sport 2+2/Clays Car service-parts manual lists #82 main and #42 pilot for its 350 cc EH35C carburetor.

What is the E-Z-GO Clays Car pilot jet size?

#42 on the documented 350 cc EH35C Clays Car/ST Sport application.

Does altitude change the E-Z-GO Clays Car main jet?

Check the exact E-Z-GO parts manual for altitude-specific main-jet alternatives.

Can I install a larger jet in an E-Z-GO Clays Car?

Only after confirming the engine, carburetor, altitude and cause of the lean symptom. A clogged passage, intake leak or weak fuel supply should not be corrected with an oversized jet.

How do I identify the correct E-Z-GO Clays Car carburetor jet?

Use the stamped jet number together with the engine code, carburetor ID and model year. Cross-check those identifiers against the matching factory parts or service information.

What is the difference between the main and pilot jet on an E-Z-GO Clays Car?

The pilot circuit controls idle and very low-throttle fueling. The main jet becomes dominant as airflow, throttle opening and engine load increase.

Verify the jet before ordering

Jet sizes can change with engine, carburetor revision, model year and altitude. This page applies to the carbureted gasoline version. Do not drill jets or assume a jet from another model is equivalent. Confirm the engine, carburetor ID and existing jet markings for your exact E-Z-GO Clays Car.
