I found the probable cause... I didn't see anything in the cylinder, and couldn't fish anything out. About an hour later, while trying to figure out what possibly could have gone through the engine, I remembered that last time we messed around with the Weber, the tiny screws that hold the choke plates in, were stripped... I just went and looked, and sure enough, one of the little screws was missing. the car still clicks and clacks like a really bad/misadjusted valve though, and it scares me. What do you think?
Peace,
