<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body dir="auto">Plunger removed. The tolerance between the dome and piston is pretty tight so it doesn’t go up and down without a little vacuum that you can feel air pushing out of bottom holes in piston. This is even with jet completely removed. I think the tightness is the piston shaft going into the dome shaft. I have cleaned but still same. Got the same on another dome. May try another piston. I just don’t have a lot of spares<div>Jim<br><br><div id="AppleMailSignature">Sent from my iPad</div><div><br>On Sep 15, 2018, at 1:21 PM, Paul Tegler <<a href="mailto:ptegler@verizon.net">ptegler@verizon.net</a>> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div>

<p>Are you trying to do this with the damper plungers in place?</p>
<p>The 'click' is simply IS the piston seating completely</p>

installed that way and now working on centering jet
properly. My first time doing these do not in a big hurry.
Curious thing is I do t get the “click” of the piston when
it falls to base while testing jet center. Even without
the shoe jet assembly installed it doesn’t click. Seems to
be the vacuum in the chamber is acting as a shock absorber.
I’m going to try I a different cover assembly with piston to
see if better fit. Good news is I have a spare set. <br>
