Clean the dome and piston grooves with carb cleaner, then smear some
motor oil on the clean surfaces. it it binds right away the dome has
been dropped and is no longer round. If no binding the jet is off center
or needle is bent. They are not numbered/matched sets.

&gt;&gt;&gt; Anyone have a spare SU H6 piston dome? Carbs on my 61 TR3A.  I believe I may
&gt;&gt;&gt; need another as the tolerance is too tight to get the piston to move up and
