Float valves eats - how to remove

Post by Minimoto »

Hi. Can anyone advise me on how to remove the float needle seats please?

Anyone ever changed theirs for new ones?

Many thanks.

Are you talking about the brass bit the needle goes into? They are just a hex fitting and a crush washer. Use a small socket set!

For the NC35 they don't appear to be able to removable, but for the NC30 they can be removed I guess.

Can you re cut the seat with a drill bit?
