T piece on Blade carbs
Wanted please - fuel T peice off Blade RRT carbs!
I have a problem in that one of the brown T-pieces that connect between the carb float chambers and onto one of the fuel pipes has cracked into
several pieces.....
Does anyone have a spare one they would be prepared to sell please?
Alternatively - does anyone have a cheap set of blade carbs at a reasonable price that I could dismantle and use the T-piece? - I've checked
Ebay but nothing available in the next couple of days...
Many thanks, - Mark.

As you know Mr short - I did! - and it got me to Beverley to get it registered! - however I would now like to drive around safely!
But thanks for the humour!
Regards, Mark.

Could you get 6mm or 8mm solder ring fitting to fit in there. They use them on microbore plumbing so a good supplier should carry them and
they'd be less than £14.99.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Thanks for the suggestions guys...
I've spoken to local Honda dealer who wants £19.99 & P&P for one!
.....however their main supplier doesn't have any and is quoting 10 days + for delivery!!!
Waiting 10 days after only passing SVA and registering car 4 days ago could be difficult!
Local dealer was also suggesting that the T peices are specific to the year of manufacture of the carbs etc- not sure I buy this because they all look
pretty much the same even if different years have different part numbers etc! - oh well - I'll have to wait!
Regards, Mark

Anyone come up with a locost solution to this problem? Picked a set of carbs up on eBay and one of the Ts is broken. The carbs were only £19 so not
worth £19.99 for a new one!
Are you a Mac user or a retard?
