I will have to get my son to transfer the post with the details of the latest design. I have been using tin from the lid of a coffee tin, the first one I made was from colorbond sheet but it was too rigid to allow me to get the needle into the hole. I have a roll of shim brass here but can't locate it at the moment.The tin will work fine because there is plenty of oil in the fuel and it is quite flexible. It is tedious work but if it solves this problem then it is the final nail in fixing these problematic carbys that when working are probably one of the best carbys ever made
Carbymaster I'm not with you 100% about getting the needle into place with the clip, I have to force it a bit to get the tip to enter and then I can press the clip to where it needs to be, then I can clip the float on. Brilliant idea, if only Victa had come up with it, but then I guess we wouldn't be fixing them now
