Carb spindle seal
« on: Today at 12:45:30 PM »
Does anyone know where I can find the felt seals that go on the butterfly spindles on the carburettors?

I stripped my carbs to clean them. Im now thinking I should not have removed the butterflies or the spindles as some of the tiny felt seals have been damaged or lost in the process.  ARRGH!

I made some using a home made 'cookie cutter' and some wool felt.

Hi Dave - that's really impressive. Do you still have the tool? Would you be willing to stamp out a set for me? I'd happily pay.
To be clear,  these are for the choke shaft which is only about 6-7mm dia.
