I allways look out for usefull stuff, usualy tools. Bought a sized stanly drill for 50p and a quick oil round and she was good as new!

@steamwally yeah, my mate paid £3 for 1, I could have let him have 1 for 50pence cheaper, all adds up in the end.

@steamwally I knew I should have brought them 2 carbs at Merton Vintage Show last year for a fiver. Altough I had no use for them, I could ceep them as spares or sell them to someone that needed 1.

Good job.
If you need a new carb, these are allways on ebay but expect to pay over £25.
Whats wrong with your carb?
