If only I had carby assemblies ready to go!

Just the one on the mower. I should be able to see what going on, and really, that is why I bought it in the first place, to get something that has seen better days, but needs repairs that are doable without specialist tools (ie; not straight fueled that would need a rebore), learn how these engines work, and thereby gain a spare mower I can alternate with the Tornado. I will also inherit the FC Corvette at some stage too, though I am happy to wait for that, for obvious reasons.

I like the thumblatch catchers, but as you say, they are falling off the perch faster than the mowers. And goons like us seem to be able to repair the mowers easier than the catchers. There has to be a way to fix these things up haha.

Just have to make sure I avoid looking for bargains though. So tempting to keep snapping them up. I will see how long I last.
