still think that adj screw is adjusted in too far, with binding a secondary result. Main result would be that the adjustment at the the idle mark would be way off. (with proper adjustment [the link and sync at idle], I'm pretty sure there would be no binding with throttle advance either.) That's if the older carb otherwise fits OK.
Having said that, I bought that washer earlier this year when I had lost one during a repair. It does have the effect of moving the cam away from the body, whether or not that is the main purpose -- also facilitates smooth movement of the cam.
curious about the fit of that replacement carb -- guess you might be trying to use the '89 silencer assembly on it (sounds like you took it off for the pic -- fits without binding anywhere?)
