Title: Carb actuating spindle removal
Post by: Mariner Wayne on October 30, 2021, 05:30:50 PM

Can anyone advise on how to remove the actuating spindle (pivot bar?) on a set of F2 carbs for cleaning and refurb?
Mine will move sideways in both directions for approx. 2-3 mm before stopping hard against something.
It's not obvious to me what is retaining it and hence how to remove it.
All advice gratefully received.
Thank you

Thanks for this.
I can see the pin in question (I think).
I have looked and can't see a previous post about this.
I need to clean up the throttle cable pulley assembly and other items that are on the spindle as they are seriously rusty and stained and I can't do this without removing them off the spindle. Hence the question.
Appreciate the help
