Hi
This is the bottom of my air cleaner lid. Anyone else get this and where’s it from? Do I need to fix it? Kevin Attached thumbnail(s)

Pretty strange.
Do remove that wire hanging over the air horn. Could it be the butterflies, shafts or bushings (if used) getting chewed up? They are made of brass. What size are the chokes? Is the brass/bronze dust inside the barrels as well? |
