Thanks for the replies.

I measured the clearances (as I understand them) and it looks fine to me.  I may have someone corroberate my findings but it doesn't look bad to me.  I think I'll put it all back together.  If I have problems again - at least this time I'll know how to tear it apart more quickly. . .

Also, I'm a little confused how one would measure the 'inner and outer rotor float).  The lobes don't sink below the casing so I would 'assume' this measurement is fine.  The gap between the lobes (measured at the tightest space when the lobes are 'closed' seems to be in spec.  And the measurement to the outer casing seems right on (measured on one side) the outer limit.   Ergo - my little brain thinks it's fine. 

Since I have the carbs off this was the time to check it so no foul.
