TDR 125 19XX

@tdrpaul The stock carb is better than those PHBH Carbs. They are a 28mm round slide carb. Flat slide is far superior.
@Calum hi Calum I agree the flat slide is a lot better carb but the dellorto phbh 28 is the standard carb for the early Italian made tdr 125.
I have a low mileage one owner 1989 tdr and I want to keep it totally original but finding original parts isn't easy.Paul

I'm definitely considering just getting a stock DT carb and inlet as a Dell Orto is proving too hard / pricey to source.
@MIGHTYMAN or grab a mikuni tmx 32. They are common enough.

@Calum Would I then still need a stock DT inlet for a tmx 32? Or is there a chance my current BIG inlet would be alright?
@MIGHTYMAN the manifold in the pic is the standard manifold for the dellorto carb which has the oil pipe connection on the carb.

@MIGHTYMAN Stock carb is 28mm TMX 32 is 32MM. So it should fit,.

Now it's (hopefully) going to be warming up outside a bit, I thought I would get back into this project again. Last night took a look at the crankshaft to find some of the bits of piston had been lodged inside the gaps in the conrod..
Also started the clean up job on the engine cases.
