No More Bug Problems!

The 34 Pict-3 was worn plumb out and even though I fitted new throttle shaft bushings, the throttle plate had worn into the barrel due to the throttle shaft play.

A new 30mm carb came with the bug, but wouldn't fit in the 34mm manifold, so...

A little measuring, marking, bandsawing, drilling, milling, and welding later -



Sometimes no amount of work will fix something. That's often hard for me to accept, but I'm not quite as hard headed in my old age and will put something in the round file after only a few days of tinkering.
