Just a stubby screwdriver for the bottom one. I actually picked up the stubby at an antique shop after realizing I'd forgotten one in the tool box.
The upper brush is a little more involved with the small generator so the carb came off.
I wore out generator brushes on a road trip once and since then made sure a pair were in the spares kit.
This is only the 3rd time I've worn out brushes. They last a loooong time. _________________ The Obsolete Air-Cooled Documentation Project http://oacdp.org/ |

Anyone needing a walk-thru drivers' seat?
I've got some bus metal, frame sections, let me know.
I'll be able to haul it down. _________________ Looking for SO34 parts.

We went to Biff Burgers one year - it was a blast and a lot of cool cars. _________________ SOUTHERN INTEGRITY AIRCOOLERS

Called LaQunita today they are booked solid for Friday night.
In need of two rooms. Anyone planning on canceling?
In other news I'll have a total of 50 "slow moving vehicle" magnets for sale Saturday morning. Same size as the one pictured below. Sized for a small hatch bus but will fit a fat hatch and bay and beetle.
