    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

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!

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".
