    probs not as the petrol will disolve it ....i would get a mallosi 1 for £15 and you dont have to take the float bowl apart to change jet it just unscrews and is also see through....look on mallosi site or ask psn to order u 1 in ...av got 1 on order

    Malossi is only for the 25 and 28?

    If you cracked the bowl it will more than likely never seal properly

    That is news to me i thought they only did them in PHBL and PHBG flavour. They do 21mm PHBGs but theyre the (expensive) black race ones
