My choke actuating mechanism has just fallen apart. Or more specifically, the retaining spindle has come away from the body and I’ve discovered it has been substituted with a ground down bolt and nut spacer, as per pictures.
so this:
rigged with this:
I believe kits are available to sort it - but I’m now wondering why one wasn’t used in the first place and more critically what damage may have been caused to the orifice in the body that the substitute’s been pushed into. So I’m now suspicious of the condition of the complete carb and have tried looking for a replacement.
Found this offered as brand new for 180euro.
Any advice/opinions much appreciated.
Thanks, Barry
