Hi, I'm pretty much restoring a Victa tilt edger, and have some questions, I've stripped it right down and the bore was pretty bad so I bought a 60thou over piston and I'm having it bored at the moment, the guy said I need to drill up one size on the jet, so first question is if I drill the jet will the plastic seat it sits in need to also be re-sized as it seems to look roughly the same size, also the idiot I bought it from had filled the seat hole with silicone, so it was totally blocked as he was holding the white plunger cap on with a self tapper, now whilst I was digging and poking the silicon out a small white coil/helicoil type thing came out with it ( from where the main jet sits ) is this a normal part as I broke it and threw it away, maybe about 4mm long and 3mm across. is it available or do I need to find a new body I've bought a complete carby kit, gasket kit, piston, gudgeon, rings, etc so hopefully I'll have a virtually new edger for less than $200 * re-bore is $100 because I've gone up 3 sizes and he has to bore it twicwe but the entire piston kit was only $26, edger $25, gaskets $8 and carby kit about $25, hope someone can help and sorry for the life story
Thanks.
