Frank, your counterbalance would be as good a theory as any. To me, it’s
just poor engineering, especially when carbs got along fine the previous
forty years with no spring involved.
It does not have a rubber bladder, but I do have an Eska that had a little
tubular, “orange” bladder mounted in the carb, if that’s the type you’re
referring to.
Thanks!
