    I have the same problem with my carb. I ordered up a new carb via DohcBikes advice. Should be here soon.

    The way I restored the trike was they way I grew up riding it so I left it the same even though its not correct! It actually got backed over by my mom one day on accident and this is how it ended up fixed. thanks for the suggestion though!

    One suggestion i've made but not tried myself, because you really have nothing to lose, is to drill a tiny hole right in the divot, fill the hole and the divot with solder, then smooth it out. The hole is for something the solder can grab on to.

    JB weld will end up in your motor.
    UPDATE!!!
    I decided against this idea because the solder could come lose just like the jb weld if not done right and i was worried about wrecking the chrome finish on the slide.

    so i ordered a new carb with slide thinking i could put it in the old carb and life would be good. Slides were different so i decided to get the dremel out and try to smooth the indent out. It did solve my idle issue but i could tell this had been the second time its been ground so im not sure how long it will last! time will tell i guess.

    I didnt put new carb in because my old carb has been rejetted and didnt feel like swapping everything yet!

    Thanks for the advice everyone! dohc i will post some pics and see if i can get a video of the unveil for you!!!

    There is a size limit to videos. I usually post on YouTube if it's a vid and paste the link.
