Larry :

Sounds to me like the damper in the rear carb is not working for some
reason.  Could it be out of oil again ?

If you manually lift the pistons (engine off), you should feel a definite
resistance with the damper rods installed, and it should be equal between
the two carbs.  The resistance acts only as they lift, they should still
fall freely.
