What's funny about this "deal" is that I was handed the carb. Never seen it on a motor. Just what the guy said. He gave me 5 carbs and asked if I could fix the problem with the one in return. I even told him that I would have no way of testing it once done because I don't have a spread bore setup to test on. I think I'm just gunna "pop the top" and have a look see. Even if the diaphragm was bad, it should recirculate in the bowl and not have enough force to shoot out the hole for the pump assembly....I would think. I'll probably see a jacked up float or a turd in the N/S assembly when I pull it apart.

Thanks Mr. Cable
