Can someone please explain the purpose of dashpot oil?
I'm well aware of what happens when I let it get too low,
car bucks and heaves while shifting up like it's only hitting on
three cylinders.
Does it act as a hydraulic damper on carb piston.
My apologies if this has been covered before but I am curious
Thanks in advance
