Carb & JB Weld

[stillsmoken]

So i took the carb off my 94 suzuki 250 quadrunner today and when i tried removing the pin that holds the float one of the arms broke still didn't get the pin out. Would it be ok to use jb weld on this just wondering because it might be in the gas but it did break off at the base any ideas would be great. Already get ebay but only for a 94 will a carb fit from another year?

I think you can buy different JB weld that is suitable for gas. Along the lines of tank repair if you have a leaking gas tank on your car. Its a 2 part putty.

Years ago i bought some stuff called gas something or other can't really remember lol. I just worry about it being sumerged in gas but i got to try something

looking online jb weld says its soluble before drying with gasoline, but once cured can withstand gasoline. damn, that sucks that that piece broke !! that is something that would just happen to me LOL. i know i was real careful taking that pin out, mine was in tight and i used an awl and hammer and tapped it out. i would probably clean the surfaces really good with some type of acid wash for the best adhesion ...

I was using a little nail( to lazy to get the right tool) thought it was moving the pin out but just broke the one side. Still have one more carb to clean lol
