ustom WG-8 Metering Lever Gauge
Use this custom gauge
to check the ML height of the button-type diaphragm.
Southwest Airports (SWA) has made a custom gauge (available exclusively from Miniplane-USA) that is similar to the official Walbro gauge but has the correct dimensions for the *button-type* diaphragm found in the WG-8 repair kits.  The button-type diaphragm is the most commonly used in N.A. and the E.U.  The SWA gauge is clearly stamped on one side with "SouthwestAirsports.com" so as not to be confused with the official Walbro gauge.  Use of custom gauge will save time, trouble, and expense for all pilots who service the Walbro WG-8 or WB-37 carburetor.  Fortunately, the WB-37 repair kits come with the height of the ML set correctly but, even so, the ML height should always be checked.  This is because the ML lever can be accidentally bent in handling.
Use the custom SWA gauge to check the ML height of the button-type diaphragm ONLY.
The gauge also has a tab (visible in the upper right of the gauge) for measuring the ML height of the WB-37.  The tip of the gauge just kisses the end of the metering lever *without* opening the valve.
This custom gauge may also be used to check the metering lever height on the WB-37 carb (the Moster Plus). The gauge has a tab (visible in the upper right of the photo above) that is especially for the WB-37. One gauge will do both the WG-8 and the WB-37.
