Re: manifold heat riser rebuild kit & counterweight attachment

Adding this so as not to start a new thread on heat risers.
Can anyone tell me if I have my heat riser/heat control valve set up right? The engine doesn't warm up very quickly, so I suspect I have it wrong. Backwards usually looks right to me.
I found this Q-Tip by Fred Mauck in a PI newsletter Fall 2010. But while I "get" what the heat riser is supposed to do, I can't see inside the manifold. And it looks like there are 2 flaps in there. Two flaps set at like a 190 degree angle. In my photos I called the shaft the "rod."
