Re: 26 VA Sidedraught Carburettor

Thanks to you all.
Found an M7x1.0 kit (drill bit, break-tang tool, twist key(?) Hex key & tap) on fleabay for £7.99....ok unboxed! but with 20 inserts in it, so send me your 26 VA bowls for me to practice on or modify!!!
No, don't, on thinking about it!

Re: 26 VA Sidedraught Carburettor

The kit worked well & the carb is together, getting closer to a start up attempt! Core plugs replaced....now to flush the Rad & block, put in some water (see if it stays in!) and oil (ditto!) and a drop of petrol (ditto!)Hot wire the ignition & see if there is a spark....fingers crossed!
