gravelrash 0 Posted May 24, 2014 Welcome to the forum any chance of posting a pic of the damaged carburetor? maybe someone could suggest a way of saving it! anyway hope you get it sorted Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BANDITJOCK 0 Posted May 24, 2014 ill do my best to post a pic, I have also thought about the use of chemical metal etc.. however being a carb it would have to be pretty precise and air tight...might just manage to pull it off though and keep me going until at least I got a replacement.
