Bent PA Needle

(1/1)

Leester:
Several weeks ago I had an incident, the ground was to close to my plane. The only damage was a bent needle. Can this be straightened and still be good, or it it toast. Thanks  Also could this damage the valve assembly? ??? ???

Mike Spiess:

Throw it out and get a new one. It will never needle right again.
