Of course. My engine woes are ongoing in that the costs to rebuild it are mounting.. replacing missing components coupled with the machine work to sort it out...

I know it's not work you'd planned, but getting it right will save heart ache later I'm sure.

Replacing the missing bits is a bind... I went to clean my carb the other day to find all the internals stripped out of it :-( will find another one I am sure
