Re: 1947 Custom super 8 carburetor

Hi, the starter would stay engaged before and after a complete rebuild.

I bypassed the carb start switch with a remote switch, and still had the problem even after a total starter rebuild.

Shimming back seems to have solved the problem - I hope.I'm not sure why, because there did appear to be plenty of drive/ring gear clearance.

I sent my carb to a phony rebuilder in Blackwood New Jersey, and am having trouble finding out if or when he will rebuild.

That is the reason I am looking for a replacement WDO 531S.

Thanks, John Verity, Boise
