(By the way, this same thing also happened to my last picco red dot aswell , not very happy with the way it's manufactured, 2 plastic lugs holding the metal sleeve on the carb)

Look forward to responses
This is not a uncommon problem. In our club we have had 2 motors that have had the carb problem. My motor was not that old, So I sold it for parts to other racer as he need the crank and piston. I don't think I would buy red dot again. I replaced it with a 353/09
