+**Installing the slide diaphragm**: ((HD Tech Tip #12 dated February 1988)) \\
+The diaphragm has the appearance of being swollen and seems too large to fit into it's groove. That's not really accurate. \\
+The repeated up and down movement of the diaphragm causes it to stretch and makes reassembly tricky. \\
+Try using the black plastic top of the carb to position the diaphragm. \\
+It will not only allow you to evenly push the diaphragm into the groove, but you can wiggle the top and "feel" that the diaphragm is in it's proper location. \\
