Soldering carb plates 120-130

Rhys;

Thats basically what I've done too...after that stupid valve on one went away - literaly (I think it was blown off by a backfire, and then "consumed"...couldn't get the idle below 2k after that!?!?)...except I didn't use acid core solder...as a electronics guy, where its a big no-no to get the acid on circuits, I keep only rosin core solder around, and use that on everything.

Epoxy solutions don't thrill me (but I'll file the interesting fact that JBW is used in intakes away for future ref.)...but once soldered, you can pretty much forget about it...because (once properly soldered) if the carb gets hot enough to melt solder, that would be the least of you problems!

Cheers
