Hi Chuck - This is not good. The chrome plating is what prevents the
shaft from wearing. When it's 'down to the brass" it will wear much
faster. Don't panic today, as the shaft is currently usable. But keep
an eye on it over the next few months.
Our carb shafts will be on sale starting tomorrow if you are interested.
