Yeah, they are junky little things. I've taken them apart dozens of
times--occasionally you find something in the valve, but often there's no
discernable reason why they quit. I've never found a leaky diaphragm.
Sometimes the spring looks rusty.

This is actually a combination of his original two book set, the little
orange and the green one, though I can never remember which color is theory
and which is tuning. This combined version is much better organised and
easier to follow than the originals, so I've been told.
And oddly enough, speaking of Holley reegulators, just last night we did
check and the one on Killer had indeed quit regulating after about 6 sesons.
So I guess I'll be getting a new one here soon. Has anyone actually bought
a replacement diaphragm and fixed one themselves?
