The progressive linkage in the photo is mechanically perfect and should work forever.
While progressive linkage can be made to work ok, straight linkage will out perform it in ALL categories every time.
This has been proven many times on the dyno in actual driving simulations.
Believe it or not, where the straight linkage shows best is at low throttle settings where most people think it should be worst. It is due to more even fuel distribution from the mixture travel path being more equal to all cylinders.

Clear vinyl fuel lines from Summit Racing; not plastic. Perfectly safe. I love to watch the bubbles when it is vapor locking. Sorry about the blurry picture. Get almost 17 mpg on the highway.
