Massive failure today!!

Post by spl310 »

So I went to drive 237 today and I had a massive failure!! The tiny cotter pin that holds the fuel jet to the choke linkage on the rear carb disappeared. Other than that, it was all fine. Maybe this is an omen that I should install the solex carbs that should be on it...

This post should have had a Trigger Warning Sid. How am I to sleep at nights now?
