Re: weber info needed



Peter,

I just finished rebuilding mine and this doesnt seem right.  Does it go further, 
if you give it a push?  The Weber service manual lists the stroke as 14 for most 
Alfa DCOEs (2, 4, 24, 27, & 28).  Other DCOEs (9, & 10) are 10.  No units are 
listed, but I assume it means 14 mm and 10 mm.

Did you make sure that the passages running along the bottom are clear.  Mine 
were gummed up too and 3 out of 4 were completely clogged.  I had to drill out 
the plugs to clear them.
