Re: Q-jet ?
I've seen a couple of marine Q-Jets like that. The spring loaded needle & seat helps with fuel slosh during tight turns. -Al

Re: Q-jet ?
The new kit has one without the ball. Do you think it will be ok?

Re: Q-jet ?
I would not use a needle that does not have spring stabilization in a boat, if the original had one in it. The rough ride you get in a boat on the water bounces the float around a lot, and you'll have problems with keeping a stable fuel level in the float bowl. A Q-Jet is fairly sensitive to fuel level for metering purposes.
