Monte,

I haven't seen any replies to this. But if you don't hear anything, let me 
know and I'll see if I can get pictures. I think I know the problem you 
describe because my son managed to reverse these when he did his first hs4 
rebuild. And it did effect the travel on jet. Unfortunately, my  hs4 carbs 
are all installed but I haven't put the air filters on my 72B yet so I 
might be able to get pictures that could be of help. I just have to venture 
into the garage which will be fairly cold (but maybe above freezing) since 
its currently 14 below F outside right now.
