Carb overhaul

#1 PostAuthor: HowieD » Thu Jul 02, 2015 4:48 pm

Greetings,

finally got Horace fired up after 15 years !!

Carbs are leaking like a sieve from that T-Piece and all the Float bowls overflow.

Hardly surprising since they were overhauled a long time ago and left in a box wrapped in cloth. I'll bet all the seals have dried out.

Any recommendations for overhauls or Spare Parts - Especially that T-Peice as they were a bit scarce many years ago.

I'm strapped for time as I go back to work for a month on Saturday so could do with sending off, if I have to, tomorrow.
CD185, Maggot, Z1-R, Horace
