Need a carb part.....

I broke my float lid trying to remove the float. Anyone have a pair of float lids with adjustable floats they wouldn't mind parting with?
I'll do the paypal thing.
HS2 or HS4 as long as there are 3 tubes on one and 2 on the other.
Thanks!

I sent a bounch of carbs to Hap when he redid mine. I know he said that he had a bunch of carbs laying around. I'm sure he would have what you needed.

FWIW, I broke one of the tabs that holds the float retaining pin. I called Joe Curto and he sent me one the next day for a very reasonable price.

The float is integrated into the pin, it's a wierd set-up, I'm not upset it broke so you're right, I ought to just get a whole new (adjustable) float.

Those are the early model floats, somewhere along the line, they got rid of the metal tab and just went all plastic, 90% of time the all plastic floats are good as far as float level, if you buy them from Joe Curto, then he will include some small shim washers if you ask for them.
