Description:

In a CV carburetor, the diaphragm seals the vacuum chamber and allows pressure differences to move the vacuum piston or slide. A torn, pinholed, stiff or poorly seated diaphragm can keep the slide from rising correctly, causing hesitation, weak acceleration or loss of power. Seat the outer lip evenly in the carburetor body groove during installation.

Reference #16022-287-004
