I can't offer any advice about carb diaphrams, but I do have a 
curiosity.  I had thought, from people's comments here, that with 
regards clutch and brake cyliner seals, the shiny, soft ones were 
synthetic and the dull-finished ones were real rubber.  But then 
perhaps there is no parallel between the properties of rubber in carb 
diaphrams vs. hydraulic seals.

Just an observation...
