Two questions, I had to replace the cork float in my 10-20 carburetor. In doing so I took the opportunity to "chem dip" the carburetor.
1- there is a tiny round hole in the carburetor near the point on the underside where it attaches to the intake manafold two inches or so from where it attaches to the intake manifold. It is tiny and looks like it was put there. It now leaks like crazy. I plugged it temporarily with a match stick and all is well. Is the hole the result of a bad casting. If not what is it for?
2- I notice the choke butterfly in the carburetor is loose. It will have to be replaced/fixed next time I have the carburetor off. I noticed there seems to be a tiny roll pin or something that will ultimatley release the choke mechanism from the carburetor. How does one easily remove that tiny pin? It looks tough. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Question #1- YEEOOOW! Thanks Mike, you may have prevented a meltdown.
Question #2- Thanks, I'll load up on several hair sized drill bits (allow for snapage) before fixing the choke. Thanks very much!

That hole is supposed to be there. The purpose is to not fill up the manifold with fuel if the float sticks, which in your case sounds like exactly what is happening. You need to check out the float to see if it's sticking down and allowing the carb to overflow. Imagine what a full manifold of gas will do if it gets the right ignition source! As for the choke shaft, there is no easy way that I know of other than to drill it out with a very tiny drill. That's about the only way. Hope this helps!
