carb help / question

Postby mickey c » Sun Apr 19, 2020 11:04 am

Morning all
I hope you are all safe and well!
the lockdown is enabling me to progress with a current project but a couple of things have stopped me.
my 1st question is that I am having real trouble sourcing a replacement E15 needle for a 23 mm dellorto carb. The carb was seized solid and although the slide is slightly scored, the rest cleaned up ok but the needle is toast. is there a 'close enough', more easily available needle I could use as a replacement please? perhaps on a certain clip?
the engine is the original 175 iron barrel that needed a rebore and has had some minor porting done previously. I'm hoping to run it with a AF clubman I had knocking around.
thanks in advance
Mike
