Hi Owen you are a sucker for punishment with these little motors but it is a love/hate relationship and we know you have done some great work. I think that you are talking about the fuel enrichment device that connects to the choke cable and is part of the carb on the 26 & 28 IMB carbs. An air filter top section and by bellows I guess that you mean the thermostat that operates the flap on the housing. I am sure that I can help you with the first two, maybe more, will have to have a rummage

Owen, great job on the 126 engine and box, it makes a good transplant in a 500. I have fitted a soft top to a Gamine, much easier than a moggy congrats. I have followed all you builds with great interest.
