Carburetor J150

[DMarine]

Hello all, first time posting here and I'm hoping to get some help from all the intelligent folks here. So first off, I have a Johnson 150 fast strike. The SN sticker unfortunately is melted and dirty and I cannot seem to read the numbers for the model number, but I can tell you that it is a 2000 Model. Now the issue I have is that in the tilt position, the carburetors leak, significantly. I know a little leakage is normal but I'm dumping about a cup when the motor is trimmed up to about 30-45 degrees. But I'm researching parts on what I believe is the model, and from what I have gathered, the carb. body has p/n 436798 which I think was replaced with 436850 and later 439756, however, down that rabbit trail, I cannot find what replaced 439756 as this info is unavailable and without the proper model number, I cannot search on BRP's website. Any help would be great, also if there is a metal replacement, I'd prefer to go with that as the plastic one has warped on the body and the bowl. Thank you in advance.

No metal replacements

I've replaced all six bowls on my engine twice now. They warp very easily. I found mine on this website, pretty cheap. From what I've been able to find, there are no metal replacement bowls for our engines. These mylon carb bowls suck.

If you rebuild them buy the book and torque them in order and correct in-lbs they last a long time.
