Trigger:
I had a shed load of carb body's that i cleared out last year. Julie put them on ebay and sold all within a month.
Most owners damage (Snap off ) the float pin towers trying to get the pin out. I have always found that if, they are well stuck in. It is easier to run a thin blade down the side of the towers and cut through the brass pin. Cheaper to replace a in than a carb body  ;)

Hope you get a result .

Amazingly the Ebay seller of those carbs is unwilling take the bowls off to enable me to check the condition.

That might be because he knows they are not very good inside.

Equally amazing they sold in a day. Did you buy them?
If they were listed as used, they must be serviceable. But just looked they are just marked pre owned, so maybe anything goes.
