Black plug for pilot screw.

I found that one of my carb on my KZ305 is missing the black plug that goes over the pilot screw jet when I took the carb apart for cleaning. How important is that item? Thanks

Fits these models, and listed as active;








Plugs the Pilot from the Float Bowl, forcing the fuel to be drawn through the main jet. Makes the low speed slightly leaner.

Thanks for the reply! I found several sources but the shipping charges are crazy! At least twice the amount of the plug! Guess I'll run it without one or try to make something suitable to plug it.

Mite soak a suitable plug in some of the Deathanol Gas over-nite to see if it survives before making the plug. lots of stuff gets eaten by the stuff the Gov shoves down our throats. :sick:

Thanks, will do!
