It seems this owner just dropped a intake washer down, * gulp*
the intake, he seemed to quick to throw a magnet, before looking down,
and this is when I arrived, (I was going to help check his fuel tank)
he was having issues with rust in fuel line.
so before I show up he had the pass. side carbs off, this is when I received the news about the washer down the intake.

it seems to me, the intake valve was closing when the washer fell in.

upon inspection, peering down, about a 1/16 gap, and see no washer.

so,

Question of day;
who has good luck doing what it took/take to get washer out,
w/o removing head, or heads.

any Two cent worth is welcome, and entertaining (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
