Thank you for the information Jake... I will keep a spare AOS available for the next time... There will be a next time.

I installed the new AOS today and got the Jägermobile back on the road... Sure was smoky for a few minutes. I will probably change the spark plugs this weekend.

I cut the AOS diaphragm casing to take a look inside and here is what I found:









The material of the diaphragm was flexible but tore very easily. There were at least three holes that were visible.

Looks like a $20 part, wonder why they cost so much?

Glad you are back on the road.
