I just took my carb off and in the process turned it sort of upside down and heard something hit the floor.

When I looked in the area I found 3 things (2 of which were probably already there because the area was messy) one of which I assume came from the carb.

The parts were:

a small aluminum sleeve about 6+mm ID and 8mm long

a 6mm set screw 10mm long with an allen wrench fitting in one end

a 6mm hex nut.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks,

So did you have the top off the carb or the float bowl?

No it was all assembled!

I just cleaned and reassembled it and don't see where any parts are missing? Maybe on of the suspect parts was just sort of sitting on top of the carb from some prior project???

I had the same problem once. The bolt that holds the top plastic cover on and has the clip for holding the wiring harness needs the small spacer for support. Put the spacer in that hole in the cap; it will fit perfect.

YOU got it! Thanks!
