    BS 32mm too corroded?

    Hello all!

    Got these carbs on the cheap for my engine hoping to rebuild them and save some money, but after cracking them open the pilot jet tube is pretty corroded on #4. Is this worth a full rebuild? Everything else seems structurally sound, just needs to be broke free and deep cleaned. Thanks!

    That carb is scrap metal.

      Dang. Kind of what I figured. Every other body looks good structurally, but definitely been sitting for awhile and quite a few jets and the slides are seized in currently. Was going to ultrasonic clean and Berrymans them, but would I be better off just sourcing another set?

        You've done got them, how big of a hurry you're in. Give them a shot and see what happens. If nothing seems to work out, you'll be sitting at the same place you are now, just be a few days later. Also a little more experience stored in your archives... I remember hearing somewhere in the past "What have you got to lose".
