The electrode could be bent from carbon. The flat spot is probably the accelerator pump being clogged if that's the Carter BBD.
AMC/Jeep gauges are for amusement only. Any correlation between them and reality is purely coincidental!

Nope, I'm referring to two different 2150's, I have like 6 Carters around here, but none in use(one is a new rebuild that came with the SX/4 if anyone needs one...)

You wouldn't happen to have photos of the differences, would you?

I could take some, but this thread talks about the differences & displays it pretty well:
