new/old style body

depends on whether u have a new or old style body on your impulse, the older ones are just glued on and the newer are threaded and glued... you may need to soften the glue with something hot like a hair drier and twist if its new or just play with it till it drops off if its old and glue a new one in with a strong glue (locktite or suchlike)..... there are loads of aftermarket vertfeeds for the new (threaded) version, low and highrise so u should be able to pick one up easily, for the old (unthreaded) version, i assume you can only get them from SP.

old or new

I had the problem of mine falling off when i had an old style bodied imp.... i just locktited it back on and it stuck forever.... so if you heat up the glue (best to take bolt etc out first, can't be too carefull!) and get a new one and just glue it on (straight'd be useful), it'll be fine. Make sure u don't get any glue inside the marker at all cos that'd cause problems... do u have a replacement feed already?

Have you spoken to Nick or Phil at Smartparts Europe... they've always been really helpful and their aftersales service is great... drop Nick a line at smartpartsnick@aol.com and i'm sure he'll do whatever he can to help you out.

Good luck mate
