The story is that K&B decided to make their carburetors in house, when John Perry bought a new full scale airplane. The carburetor was the most expensive part of the engine, and K&B decided it was time to reduce their up front costs. Over the years I've run a lot of Perry carbs, and yes the idle disc is very sensitive. Perry carbs are still available.
thanks Greg, my ACE told me they’re for plumbing, “water”, and not chemical tolerant?? You have any long term issues?
thanks, bill
