Ive been meaning to post this up a while ago. One of our SOS Oz Members Taspiper repaired it for me. I will let the pictures tell the story. Ive also noticed that i need to fill my parts draw with some fuel line washer seals so i can renew the decayed one thats on there now. Thanks Heaps Taspiper for a great job.

Dont know Stelios. The airhorn screws on with no dramas. You would think that its been cut using a lathe.

A very, very nice piece of work, are you English Mr. Taspiper?
This side of the Equator that's way more work than the carb is worth, it's a pity you don't live a little closer to me, as I've loads of fiddley little jobs like that, that I can't get around to doing.

Born Aussie but englush, scott and German in there. Yes turned on lathe and milled too.Probably worth more than carb but bits are getting harder to find here and I hate wasting stuff. We seem to get all the fiddly jobs!
