Hey Bob . . (et all)
Thanks for the reply . . those sound like good techniques.
I might want to clairfy the symptoms.
I haven't swapped the "pistons" meaning the air-valve diaphragm assembly.
They seem to move up and down in their carb bodies just fine.
When I install the dampers (the little rods that screws in the top of the
carbs) . . . then one carb has more resistance to in the air valve piston
moving upwards.
It doesn' matter if I swap the dampers (little rod that screws in the top)
between carbs .. . the rear carb always has the harder piston to move.
The restricted movement is most defintely related to dampening effect and not
the air valve or the needle dragging on anything.
Thanks for your replies.
