March 5Mar 5 Author Thanks Iv got a bit of ocd and like things to be correct but it’s beginning to look like I might need to get the grinder and Dremel out as I can’t find anything anywhere and it’s wearing me out stripping and cleaning the carb all the time thanks B

Luckily its not gearbox parts etc that you want. Hope you find the actual parts. Regards Alan.
March 6Mar 6 Author I’m actually onto something with the part I need I found someone selling online new 3D printed ones tho they are out of stock so Iv mailed the person to ask if I can have the file as my sons got a 3D printer that he got 2 years ago apparently so fingers crossed thanks B
