<p class="MsoNormal">Yep, as others have suggested, the damper has blown through the cap. I'm sure your TC hiccups if you press the gas too hard.<br>
<br>
The TC would have a damper with a brass cap, best to get one of those.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">ran into something have not seen before. cleaning the carbs on an MGTC and discovered there is no damper. there is a plastic cap and a 3/16 hole approx 1/4 inch deep in top of piston rod. Moss shows a damper
and so does the workshop manual. any ideas what i have here?<br>
