Broken Lug!
Posted: Thu Oct 02, 2014 12:52 pm
Hi all,
After deciding to refurbish my Weber 40-31s myself, I have now had them both stripped down and all seems reasonably good, but when I removed the float pin from one carb - disaster - arrrh!
As you can see in the picture the lug holding the pin has broken and I bet this is not the first time it has happened, it seems like a fracture waiting to happen (the broken piece is being held by pliers).
Has anybody got a cure for this or is it hunt for a replacement time?
Onwards and upwards
