miket Posted May 4, 2015 Report Share Posted May 4, 2015 Not the end of the world, but I lost the black plastic lever on my fuel tap when I was practising. Guessing I am not the first, so what ideas/tips have you got to replace it. Otherwise it's a new tap from gas gas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowlly70 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Old chain link,file out the pin hole square so it just fits on the shaft then burr the edges over to stop it falling off, be careful though as you might crack it if you hit it to hard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooooo good idea. You know i actually make my own silicone casts to make my molds. The other day I came home from a long day of work and said didn't i want to cast something? That was it!
