Carburetor Overhaul

<< < (2/2)

Nurse Julie:
I was doing some thinking in the middle of the night, as you do :'( ,about these carbs. I knew i hadn't had to drill anything out to get the bar out when i dismantled mine, so had a look back at the photos. Mine also has the pin but the bar came out after removing the woodruff keys and no drilling was necessary, this is why i initially said no drilling was needed. I can only assume the pin on mine was not long enough to do its job , although it looks like the correct pin and looks like it's all the way home.

Deano400:
Thanks Julie. Definitely looks untouched. I wonder if in the past the shaft has been hammered out shearing the pin? Mine seems quite solid so I think it'll be a risk hammering. Still looks like the drill for me.

Nurse Julie:
It may have been John. I remember giving it a little tap when I rebuilt the carbs but it didn't go in any further. There is no movement on my bar so I didn't bother investigating it further.
