The front HS6 carb on my 142 seems to be hanging on the dashpot. Usually follows a heat soak but it?s done it even without that happening. If I pull the dashpot out the piston moves nicely so I?m positive the large diameter section isn?t sticking inside the dome. I swapped dashpots between the carbs and it stayed with the front carb so it seems to be inside that smaller diameter section that slides up around the dashpot.
Is there a way to remedy this? Is it ok to spray carb cleaner in there? It feels a little gritty/rough when pulling the dashpot up and down - not smooth like the rear one. I have a spare set of dashpots from my HIFs that I might try but it really feels like it?s in the carb.
