1983 Yamaha TT 600 Carburetor Rebuild and Clean...mostly at least 

I’m such a geek with this stuff, riveted!!

Tang repair…same problem …Crazy glue lasted 2 years ….JB weld has lasted 4 years….just checked after 4 all good…give’r a go!

I had exactly the same situation about 4 years ago, I bought a lightly used 1984 TT600 ( $800 Dollars )... Previous owner had the carburetor off and in a box, disassembled in many, many pieces. The same Tang was broken off on the float pin support ! The JB Weld is still holding today.

Welcome to old bikes mate. I made a comment already but it disappeared 🤷. That carb I’m sure will be shared amongst other Yamaha models of that era. If you search parts diagrams online some websites will suggest other bikes that the parts (such as carb) were used on . This then gives you a basis to widen your parts search . Very useful when looking for obsolete items. For example my bmwf650 shares the same carb model as my Suzuki dr750. Also that needs to be ultrasonic cleaned. Happy to run it through mine if you fancy a run up north 😉

Important thing On the float one can see it has to latch after the "head" of the needle. Meaning when float goes down it pulls needle open

JB Steel stick. Let it go right off over a couple of days then carefully grind out the excess if necessary. Good luck.

Try some of that dentist glue you see advertised on Insta. The stuff that sets using blue light. Extremely strong for all applications. Good luck.

I used a company called yambits when restoring dt125lc , they do list tt600 in their product list. Might be worth a call.

Same carb on the SRX 600 which I was working on yesterday - gave up on the filter without having a spare. Where did you get the service kit and do you know its part number?

I love mucking about with carbetooters, by the way do you hold the national collection of Cobwebs? they're spectacular.

I’d probably look to see if you can find an alternative carb that might fit. You might drop lucky and find something cheaper?

Ahhhh, gutted for you mate. It’s a right b@$tard when tiny things scuppers the job. Whack some JB or metal weld on it and if that fails get a new carb! Good luck 🤞
