Hi guys,
I have a question about a HX. I know that this is the wrong forum but I'm not on another forum and it is still a classic 202.
I need to know what would be best to make the carby insulator out of.
What has happened is that the flange on the bottom of the stromberg has broken into two pieces. I put another carby on, had hardly tightened the nuts and the new one broke. I put a straight edge on the insulator and found it is bowed in the middle which would explain why the carbys have broken.
I have shopped around and everyone tells me I can't get them anymore and that I have to make it up.
I was thinking of possibly using that compressed leather stuff.
So, what do you guys reckon?
