Wondering about the function of the accelerator pump on my 2001 Sportster LE's carbs. I've got them off the engine waiting on rebuild kits to show up, I can hear the pump functioning when I work the throttle linkage, but it seems like it only wants to squirt fuel through the PTO side carb. Is this normal, or is the mag side carb suppose to get fuel also?
Also, what to folks generally do with these, keep them installed or delete them & bump the pilots up? I wasn't even aware there were 2-stroke carb setups out there with accelerator pumps until I pulled them off my engine. I'm all for eliminating a potential failure point if I can.
