Hi all,
after a successful Drive It Day outing yesterday I was checking the old girl over and I've lost the damper cap from my OM type carb.
Looking on Burlen's site it's not clear whether I should have a vented or un-vented cap, and I can't remember which type was fitted to mine. I can't remember seeing a vent hole in the cap, but not sure. Is anyone on the forum running a pre-war type 1" OM? If so, would you be kind enough to see if yours has the little vent hole, or not, in the brass damper cap and post a reply.
Also, anyone got any cunning ideas for stopping these things vibrating loose other than loctite?
Best wishes and thanks for any advice.
Robin
