My front float bowl was leaking a little so I got new rubber gasket/rings for 
the bowls and a new fiber washer to fit between the hollow studs and the carb 
bodies.  I noticed that the new fiber washer has a larger inside diameter 
than the one I took off, so I used a nylon washer that more matched the one I 
took off in size. It is MUCH thinner.  Upon start up,, It is running really 
poorly.  Did this just raise the fuel level in my jets and cause this?  Seems 
like 
a little change in thickness wouldn't make much difference.  Any advice is 
ALWAYS appreciated,,, Kent Shrack TR3a,,, 1960  red,, tan,,, and now, ,, Fun,, 
after 18 years sitting still.
