Thanks Alantf. Nice to know I still have some living memory cells left.

Any other members out there for clarification? We don't the OP trying the impossible.
Damn, all this time I have been doing it wrong!
Mine gives a bit of resistance from the mounts, but not much.
Well, learn something every day.
But - it is not impossible to do it that way,
been doing it for years.
Now I'm wondering if my mounts need replaced!

Just man up and tell the truth. You really enjoy a tussle with your bike when you can win.

You have to remove it from the carb. If it's broken, the broken part is inside the casing.

Beats the hel* out of trying to argue with a wife!
And, it never talks back, eats crackers in bed, or says 'NO' when I want a ride!

True!
After weeks of cold, wet, weather, it was NICE today!
High 60's (F) and sunny.
Rode for hours, maybe the last time for this year.
And, she didn't complain a bit.
