carburetor damage

Post by OldStan » Tue Jul 04, 2017 6:28 pm

I purchased a used carburetor that has a piece broken out of the small brass tube on the intake side. Will it work properly with this damage?

Worth a try - you probably won't even notice....

Thanks G-Man. That was kind of my thinking, just wanted another opinion. It's just a spare at this point, although I've got a project coming up that might need it.
