Let me know if you have any lying around VM34 has to be from the PE 175 though

Lozza,
What would i be looking for (physically from any other VM34)?
I have a PE175 engine in bits somewhere and i'm sure it came with a carb, trouble is it would be in the box with the other 20 or so.

The only problem i have ever had with my PE 175X was with the carb . The slide locating pin came adrift from the body of the carb and got sucked through the motor . Didn't cause any damage (its aluminium ) but wedged itself between the crank web and the crank case giving the impression that the motor was seizing. Finished a race on it no problem but when i went to stsrt it it wouldn't start , the slide had turned in the carb . kicking it you didn't notice the extra resistance but when turning it over by hand you could feel the binding . Pulled motor down expecting the worst , and found the culprit sitting under the crank web .
Reassembled it fitted new carb and its been good as gold ever since :) Heres Brad 090 doing things with it that made the enduro purist blush at the Johnny Old ;D

Pete,
No idea what it is. I've got to go down to the storage shed this weekend to drag out a bunch of project's and complete bikes that that i am about to sell off so i'll have a look. I've seen engine number id's for RM's but not PE's. If i get the engine number will that help you ID what i've got?
