Title: Secondary throttle blades curved slightly?
Post by: spoolboy on March 27, 2025, 08:10:00 AM

In the carb I'm working on, the secondary throttle plates have a very slight curve to them. They will rock if placed on a flat surface. Is this normal or has someone been in there before me and done this for some reason?

Welcome to the Forums!

The throttle blades should be flat.
There is absolutely NO reason for curved or bent blades.
