<VV> exhaust tube replacement & choke spring replacement

[Louis C. Armer,Jr.]

Hey John, The "rivet" is actually a brad with spiral grooves on it. 
The assembly is usually fairly
easy to remove and you then can just replace it with a good used one 
or a new reproduction part
from the vendors. You may end up having to use a small self threading 
/tapping screw to hold the new
spring plate.
