    I replied thru email, guess it didn't show up here. Anyways, if you have an eb series motor than it has to be the 550cc with the 4spd tranny, same one I have. I have the book on this one so I can probably get you the carb # when I get home today. They are pricey carbs, I did put a mikuni 34 on one of my trucks, starts up nice , revs better than the stock carb but I haven't tried it on the road yet. Mikunis are everywhere and it wasn't that hard to adapt. Do a search for someone else that did this swap here, I think he found an adapter that fit the carb to the engine, don't remember what it was though. I made my own out of aluminum but that's just me.

    The only thing that I could find in the book is that it's manufactured by AISAN for the eb-90 engine.What is the Type on your vehicle tag, underneath the vin #?

    S= Hijet
    80= 2wd
    L= left hand drive
    P= pickup truck
    T= standard cargo type
    R=standard grade
    K= 4speed
    Some of these models have a tag on the carb but not of much help. What are your carb symptoms? Maybe just needs a cleanup or something.

    I have a 1996 HiJet 4 wheel drive with Hi/Lo. When we bought it the guy told us it was a 4 speed manual. He was wrong it's a 5 speed. It's a S110P. Engine is EF-NS.What does that mean? Also I would like to find a carb that will work also that won't brake the bank. What other places should I look on the truck to find out info other than the aluminum plate with VIN. I would like to find out exactly what type of engine I have so I know when ordering parts. I see a lot of people saying model numbers for engines like S83 or S something I am wondering if that pertains to my truck. Thanks for the help in advance

    Good Morning to all, a while ago i request some help with my carburetor on my DAIHATSU vin: JDA000s8000001503 , TYPE: S80LP - TRK , ENGINE: EB 547cc , TRIM: LGT1
    And Mad659 was very kind in helping me out...unfortunately at that time i got diagnosed with cancer and i had to stop coming back for a while until I figured out how to deal with this....anyways that’s another 20 bucks ...
    I started again back on my truck and i will like to get it running ...carburetor has been solved for now even I might need one down the road....but in order for me to figure out what book or manual i need ...i need to find the year of my truck.
    Anyone have any idea how to find out?
    Thanks

    Daihatsus are not dated as built in any particular year. The best way is to look at the little white tag on the seatbelt. That is the easiest way to determine age.

    what is stamped under the drivers seat ? s8000001503 ??

    The seatbelt tag gives closest info on age. The left hand drives do not have a manual per say. The best information is from g&r imports in Missouri. Check them out on facebook.

    Seat belt tag means nothing when you want the build number to get the parts fiche specific for that truck.

    William,
    Would like to understand an update on your condition. PM me please. The minitruck be damned.
    I too am suffering right now, but not with cancer though.
    My prayers are for you and your family. He does have a purpose for us all. We may not like it but He does see higher things than us.
    Blessings,
    Dennes
