I think that you made a mistake when referring to the small "ball bearing". There should be 2. One in each of the chambers beside the central one that you were "poking"I might also suggest that you do not remove the pump shaft (lock nut, nut and springs) from the shaft, but leave attached to the pump cover. As when refitting and reassembling the unit you will have to recalibrate the pump adjustment to deliver the correct amount of fuel per number of pumps...(maybe it was already correct?)
Thank you Paul for your advice, It will be most needed! I haven't separated the pump cover yet from the housing. Could I use the assembled carb as a reference when I come to reassembly? I wont be using these carbs and will likely be for sale afterwards so I the next owner may have to calibrate.

Can you tell from the video? I will check it on an flat surface.
