The Multiquip 2266240808 Main High Alt Jet #65.0 EC12 is a genuine OEM carburetor jet designed for the MT85 tamping rammer. This high-altitude jet is factory-specified to deliver the correct fuel metering at elevated job site elevations where standard jets run too rich, ensuring the rammer maintains consistent power output. Sourced directly from Multiquip, part 2266240808 is the exact component used in original production, giving you a direct, verified replacement for the MT85.
Key Features
- OEM-Specified Fuel Metering — Calibrated to the exact #65.0 orifice size required by the EC12 carburetor, ensuring proper air-fuel ratio at high altitude without over-fueling.
- Direct EC12 Carburetor Fit — Engineered to thread directly into the EC12 carburetor body on MT85 rammers with no adaptation or re-jetting guesswork.
- MT85 Rammer Compatibility — Confirmed fitment for Multiquip MT85 tamping rammer models; verify your carburetor type before ordering.
- Consistent High-Altitude Performance — Compensates for reduced air density at elevation, preventing rich-running conditions that rob the rammer of stroke power and fuel efficiency.
- Genuine OEM Sourcing — Manufactured to Multiquip's original production specification, so you get the same component that left the factory — not an approximated aftermarket substitute.
A main high-altitude jet is a small precision-metered orifice fitted inside the carburetor that controls how much fuel is delivered to the engine under full throttle at elevated elevations. At higher altitudes, thinner air means the engine receives less oxygen, and a standard main jet will cause the engine to run excessively rich — resulting in rough operation, fouled spark plugs, power loss, and hard starting. Swapping to the correct high-altitude jet, such as this #65.0 unit for the EC12 carburetor, restores the proper fuel-to-air mixture so the MT85 rammer delivers full compaction force and starts reliably in high-elevation conditions.
