Not even sure if the 30VEI is that great a carb, but I'm a conservationist at heart, so I want to get it working as well as I can. I agree completely it is much better I leave it alone rather than mess it up, but I had hoped one of the greybeards would say it was an easy fix - here's how to do it.
I would suggest as others have, leave it alone not worth the risk on a carb that is virtually irreplaceable.
It is only a pivot pin and still looks quite up to the job.

I suspect this may be a Speedy-ish 25mm, and will add it to the Nippy site list... but would like to know!
