When I take my lid off to adjust my needle there is some gas on the actual diaphram and its wet. Is this normal?

I don't think so. It's supposed to be dry. Dry it off, run it again, and see if it gets wet again. Maybe that's been there from the factory

Hold it up to a light and see if you have a small hole in it anywhere.

No holes. Is the fuel getting pulled in with the vacuum? Seems odd it gets in there.

That is normal that the diaphragm is wet with gas. Look at the bottom of the cylinder and you will see 1 or 2 holes as the air pressure rises the Diaphragm raises the needle out of the Main Jet and Diffuser and gas gets blown inside the cylinder and wets the top of the rubber diaphragm. Alleyoop

Which side of the diaphragm are we talking about? Bottom would be OK withing reason while the top or vacuum side would not indicating that there may be some seepage through the diaphragm or where it attaches to the slide.

If alley says it's normal, I would'nt worry about it. None of the ones I've had were wet,But he's seen a whole lot more.
