It could be the state of the oil in the dashpots. The characteristics
imparted to the SU carb setup by the dashpots is functionally equivalent to
an accelerator pump (just repeating what I've read on this list). Does they
have any oil? Did you use the equivalent of 20 wt oil (ATF, motorcylce fork
oil, Marverl Mystery Oil, etc?).
