Weber 40 Rebuild Question
 
Is it possible to remove these tubes? One of mine is bent and I would like to straighten or replace it while they are apart (This picture isn't my carb).

Just tap it straight with a soft hammer it will be fine Cheers

It got bent pretty bad in shipping so I'm affraid it will be kinked pretty bad if I try to straighen it.

Is there any way to remove and replace them?

Can you find a rod that is the same diameter as the inner diameter and gently tap it in? Silicone or oil so it comes out easily. Never tried it just a thought.

It is not able to be removed easily as it is burred over underneath the base.It is only a breather it wont kink & as long as the air cleaner base will go back on it can be bent a little & will work fine.Cheers
