Simon;

Don't just fill Dashpot reservoir...external surface of Dp tube should get a slight film of oil so that it is perfectly lubed within Dometube...

Choke doesn't necessarily need to be disconnected, but when in disengaged position, fast idle adjustment must not be affecting Throttle position...this in turn would raise DP...Choke linkage does not affect Throttle directly. Correction: ...Dashpot height directly !

...but the FIRST thing that needs to happen is DPs need to have free lubed/unjammed movement throughout their entire operating range when engine is OFF! See Link!

Good Hunting!
