That royally sucks. That is not a part that should freaking break. I'd be livid over that. I see the two phillips head screws, they didn't loosen up, the plate just broke? What the hell is up with that? Did you get stranded far?

I really should have switched the carb sooner, the plate itself had signs of it being over tightened from factory.
I'll have some pictures within the week, I'm taking it over to a shop to crack it open and see the damage soonish.
In any case a new engine doesn't exactly break the bank to hard. 
Hope it doesn't come to that though. |
