I put a rebuild kit in my '51 M carb last year and have had nothing but trouble with it. The needle and seat were replaced, but I wish I would have kep the original ones. The new one has the rubber tip and it will not seal. Also the hinge rod for the float seems too short and will not stay in place. I have had to take the carb apart at least a dozen times to fix the float hinge and clean the needle. Put it back together and 20 minutes of run time later there is gas pooring out of the carb.
Where can I get an original style needle vavle and seat (no rubber tip)?
Is there any trick to getting the float hinge to stay in place? I've tried pinching the brackets against the rod but it still moves from side to side and falls out of the bracket. Is the hinge rod too short?
