I was taking apart the carbs to soak in a bath over night when all of a sudden chaos happened. I was getting the last rusty screw out when the carburator slipped and broke off the enrichener circuit :( I dont know what else to do, not sure if you can replace it or not or if im just screwed. If someone could help me out would appreciate it!

It should start alright with just three enrichers. If you can find another carb down the road you can replace it. Don't let this mishap stop your work looking for a carb.

It would help of you filled out your profile and put what kind of bike you have in the signature section. That way riders will know what help to offer.

Those come out, easily with a little heat. Totally replaceable if you can get the end of what broke off out.

If otherwise unavailable, damaged carb tubes are sometimes replaceable with an appropriate size brass tube from a hobby shop.

Good Fortune! :)
