Default earlyer carb power valve issue may be solved

got the rebuild kit from pony carb and the little silver plugs we all see on a carb are called welsh plugs, pry'd mine off and discovered....2 things,, 1 was they sent the wrong piston that lives in the upper housing pf the carb to block back fire action,, and the second was that the silver "caps" are called welseh plugs and can be |pressed" in with a mallet and the right sized scoket ot punch/drifth.. it's a balanceing thing to be sure,, at this point in time everything is running cool
