Re: [T3] T3 Weekend work (shocks and carbs - long)

Petri=> Are these parts from the carb?

Could be. Are they brass? I gotta wonder if something hasn't come apart in
there. It's odd, though, that you have junk in *both* carbs. The parts might
add up to a check valve or something. Are your pilot jets intact?

=> why would anyone add these pieces instead
=> of controling the mixture and idle? sounds
=> stupid to me.

Well, the idea of putting loose parts into the reservoir to somehow adjust
performance simply wouldn't work, so your instinct is good.
