Interesting. In all my readings about the mysteries of the SU fuel pump, th=
at is the first I've seen of that/those methods of adjusting the diaphragm =
('stretching' it); all others use the 'push the diaphragm until the mousetr=
ap doesn't throwover, then back off 4-6 turns' method. This method may be s=
uperior in that, possibly, every diaphragm may be have a little different '=
stretchability.'=20

Maybe this is Kees' closely guarded secret method?=20

The stretching of the diaphragm is not described in later manuals but I 
do see a point there. I did not stretch the diaphragms but it cannot do 
any harm to do so.
The later description of how to set the points is a bit simpler and 
easier to do.
