Hello All,

I was working on my carbs and when putting them back together, did not
know what way to put the trottle sliders... Actually I have an idea
based on looking at a carb apart in the Chilton's Manual, but the thing
is that the guy that owned my Ambo before most probably put the sliders
the wrong way... So just to be sure I asked question #1

Question 1)
If I look straight at the hole that feeds the gas to the engine (not the
air hole), what part of the slider should I see ??? The small square
part where numbers are stamped on or the larger rectangle ???

Question 2)
Also on one carb when I put the trottle slider where the stamped numbers
can be seen through the gas feeding hole, the slider when pushed down,
gets stuck... Is it OK to file the side of the trottle slider with sand
paper until it won't get stuck anymore ???

Thanks for the answers will let you know when I'll get it to crank...

Cheers

Charles H
