yes, I agree it looks like binding rocker could have been the issue, but I checked for free travel especially on assembly (have seen it happen before) and also when disassembling. No rockers were binding. I always adjust with feeler blade, then always wiggle by hand to check and yes I have caught issue on assembly caused by shaft not in correct posistion. I still agree with you based on the looks.,
Also on assembly the spray bar was replaced. And I checked spray pattern with spirits from a pressurized bottle. Perfect spray both on assembly and also on disassembly
