S&S Super E choke cap

Gives the choke lever on an S&S Super E carburetor a proper knob to grab, so you're not pinching a bare metal tab. The sides are ribbed for grip and the underside has a slot that slides over the lever. Change the lever width and thickness to match yours.

Assembly

  1. Push the cap straight onto the lever tip. A drop of glue in the slot makes it permanent.

Good to know

  • The build report still flags a 20 mm³ overlap between the lever and the cap. That is deliberate: the two crush ribs press about 0.2 mm into the lever to hold the cap on. The insert path itself is clear.
  • The lever size (12 × 3 mm, 12 mm deep) is estimated. Measure the real lever and adjust the sliders before printing. Tune the Slot clearance slider if the cap is too tight or too loose.
  • PLA softens around 55 °C and the carburetor area gets hot, so PETG or ASA is safer in service.
