Steve has just had a pleasant hour stripping down our latest 30mm carburettor. Everything was solid, of course, but a little heat from the propane torch and everything let go with no breakages at all. The hole pitches in the mounting flange are incorrect for us so Steve tried to remove it but without success. It is screwed on and soldered but even though the solder was running, it wouldn't shift. He has therefore decided to use all of the components to resurrect the 28mm carburettor body we have and make a new flange of the correct size for that. Actually, this will be a perfect solution as 28mm is the size specified for the lorry anyway!
