We all know these carbys are garbage but we are stuck with them. What I don't understand is of the hundreds I have modified and got working fine (this is the couple of hundred viton tipped needles I have bought and about a similar number of primer caps) What I don't understand is why I can put a carby together the same as hundreds of others, some will just not work. I can remove everything from the carby and fit it on another body and it will work. It makes absolutely no sense but it is extremely frustrating, the same as these awful float needles, one I did half an hour ago, new float needle and new primer cap and it just pissed fuel out, put in another new needle and it works fine. They are just typical Chinese garbage but there is no other option. I am getting to the stage where I think I will just give up on these 2 strokes bevause they are just too problematic I have 10 24's here to get sorted and I think the rest of the Victa stuff I have here can go to the scrap they are not worth wasting time on, all because of the float needles and primer caps. It is a shame with all the good motors I have here but at some stage you have to accept that you are flogging a dead horse.
