Title: Accelerator Pump Return?
Post by: ponchobro on September 24, 2009, 01:42:41 PM

Cliff, When the accelerator pump gets fully depressed on return it slows for the last 1/8". When I went through the carb I cleaned up the bore? it is one of your pumps. What should I check for?
Thanks Ken

Check the pump for free travel the full length of the bore.  If it is sticking at one place in the bore it may be polished smooth and grabbing the seal.  If the seal is tight in the entire bore, we'll send you another one....Cliff
