Solex 35 Carbs, how do you open them?!?
Posted: 01 Oct 2007, 21:34
Hi there,
my Solex PHH 35 carbs have been leaking for some time on the underside of the carbs, so I thought buing a new seal kit would be a good idea. Now I am trying to rebuild them. I need to open the chambers on the underside of the carb in order to put the new seal in, but for some reason, I cant open the bigger one (sorry, got no idea what its called). I had no problem opening the small one with the membrane, but the bigger one wont open. I didnt want to use to much force, I am afraid to break something. I unscrewd the four screws on the underside of the carb, but I think there could be a 5th one from the inside of the carb, but I couldnt find anything looking like a screw or bolt. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks a lot!!!
