I am trying to rebuild a pair of Solex 32 PBIC carbs and need some advice. I need to but cannot remove the emulsion tube that runs down the middle of the throat of the carb. Does anyone know how to remove these? According to the rebuild diagram this tube comes off. Does anyone sell these tubes and or the jet that screws into the emulsion tube? I have two carbs that the top of the emulsion tube is broken. Thanks for the help.

Ditto, same issue here, one of mine is broken..... Also, is there a good source for the bolts, screws, levers/springs to rebuild these? I already have the standard "rebuild kit"

Thanks,
A
