The business end of the plunger floats on the shaft, so if the shaft is bent
badly enough to make it bind, the bend should be obvious. I would start by
swapping plungers with the other carb, and be sure the problem follows the
plunger. If it does, try sitting the plunger upside down on a hard flat surface
and looking to see where it's bent. You can use a square to compare against, if
necessary.
Or, just find a spare plunger somewhere. I see partial SU carbs on eBay all the
time, for not very much $$.
