hello there! When I rebuilt my carb couldn’t get the accelerator pump out..I expected it to drop out. Anyway, I put it all back together but I have noticed a load of dead play. Should the spring/piston always be in contact with the leaver? It is only acting on it Having problems with misfire/rich running. Wondered if this could be part of the issue? I have lapped the carb so the 2 body parts meet well now. Thanks, Joe

Hi mate, it’s a 36iv.

I had completely re built the carb..minus getting that piston out!

Anyway..I managed to get it out (with force) and the spring had gone under itlself and was jammed. The sprig is buggered..so time for a new piston etc!
