    hey all I sent my original lectron back to Kevin to get it cut & shut down to newer smaller size(recommend this as it takes like 7mm overall length off & makes it much easier to install plus they clean it all up/service back to new condition-worth the coin!). anyhow when it came back to me there was a small cylindrical piece of foam(size of pinky finger tip maybe) & a small black washer(maybe 10mm) in a separate plastic bag. what are these for anyone know? I got no idea:excuseme:

    I thought that piece was a hard plastic type deal, this is just like air filter foam? was thinkin maybe breather vent filter possibly?

    not sure about the washer but my lectron came with that installed on a plastic "hat" where the main picks up fuel. perhaps he sent you a spare? is there one installed now?

    ahh mr Nintendo, makes sense, you may well be right. tbh I didn't check if there was one installed but coming direct from lectron im betting there would be. running sweet so not gonna touch it just curious as to what it was for. bit like ikea furniture, left over bits that got no idea where the hell they go!:D

    The foam one is what they used to all come with. The plastic hat is an upgrade and keeps them from sloshing fuel away from the rod under severe conditions to eliminate a possible bog. If it came in a bag the upgraded one is probably installed.
