CV carb adjustment screw washer II

[robertbarr]

Well, the only thing sanely priced was this lil' creature:

18-8 Stainless Steel NAS 620 Flat Washer 4 Sz, No. C4, .115" ID, .209" OD, .029"-.035" Thk

As you'll note, the ID is just a tad -- just a MITE -- small, by 0.08mm. The slightly greater thickness is inconsequential, and the OD looks perfect.

I had to order a huge number of these, enough to last probably forever.

What's a good way to enlarge a tiny washer by a tiny amount?

The good news is, people won't have to shell out for a rebuild kit + shipping if / when they lose one or two of these. I'm thinking a dollar per set of 4 + a stamp. Sound fair? At least until they pay themselves off, which could be a long, long time...

I did find some that were sized just right, but they were 43 cents a copy and the minimum order was 500. No thanks...

Broach or a reamer (.08mm=.002" ? ) I don't know about the hardness though.
send me one and i'll try it with my clock bushing reamers.

(.08mm=.002" ? ) I don't know about the hardness though.

.002" is about right.

Rockwell hardness = B70. Is that good or bad? I'm just wondering how I'd hold the little *&^(*^'s back while I operate, considering that it's going to happen many times.

PM me your mailing address and I'll mail you a few when they arrive, probably tomorrow.

I've got to order some o-rings and I hope to do it tonight, put it in the package.

rockwell hardness b70

what I find is slightly stronger than an unhardened Grade 2 steel fastener.
looks like it's in the brass scale of hardness.

Robert,
thanks for doing this! Of course, you know it's about a month late, but I will keep you in mind for next time.
