[TR] Triumph shop repair blues

[thenicholls at verizon.net]

To the list,

1972 Triumph TR6 in the shop last week.  Carb jets were removed and replaced.  Drove home last Thursday in the rain, running great.

Checked the oil and dashpots, the front one was low.  Ok, the guy did not top it off, no problem.  Topped off front dashpot, washed car, and moved back into garage.

Today, I come out to an empty front carb dashpot.  Pulled a plug, did not look that bad.  No dashpot oil under car, so my assumption is that the carb pot oil is draining back into the engine.

Is this correct?  Can it be driven back to shop or should it be towed?

I don;t want to even go into my mood at this point, any insight is appreciated.
