Hey All,
I've been a lurker over here for a while as this site has been amazing helping me make my 75' Honda 360T road worth. I have a "would you run em'?" type question:
One of the carbs (Keihin 745B) seems to have quite a bit of erosion/pitting throughout the fuel bowl. Portions of the pillar that hold the float pin are severely pitted (holes still round) and it looks like the tops of some of the holes for the jets are also fairly bad. All of the jets seem to screw into the holes okay, so I don't think the threads are compromised. That being said I haven't been able to get the pilot jet out. I'm wondering if you all think this carb is too sketchy to run. All thoughts/criticism welcome. I'm in this to learn.
P.S. those shaving looking things are hunks of chop stick, not brass...
