1996 787 GTX CARB popoff questions

[Shane0524]

While doing my popoff test after a carb rebuild, the arm and needle tends to stick after popping. Is this normal? Also what holes need to be plugged? It seems that when I first started doing the Testing, I had the pulse , pump return plugged, and I had air going in the pump inlet. But after running a few tests with wd40 for sealing purposes, I now have the air flowing freely out of the bottom hose nipple? (the one shown not plugged in pic) Is this supposed to happen or is some thing not right? When I plug them all up it pops at the right pressure, but it will sometimes sticks. Please let me know if my setup looks correct. thanks

Shane, the pic isn't showing..

By sticking you are saying needle sticks open and thus would bleed fuel if it was running?

Can you remove the needle and just verify the arm pivots smoothly?
