Even allowing for the water tube to bend out and away from the bottom there is as much as 15mm left uncovered ...

Re: cylinder tolerences

As you say, not much difference between the 2 carbs; after a bit of a search on the net I found that most of the part nos. are the same. However, my 2 jet seems to be ok on the threads, so I think maybe I am lucky.

cylinder tolerences

My my service manual for a Tc 102 shows a cylinder tolerance of 2.237/8 " yet when I measured it I made it 2.235". Am I reading this correctly? What is the manufactured size?.. Cheers!
