I wasn't sure what you were talking about so I went to walbro.com and looked at the exploded view. The views are hard to read, but I think I know what you mean. THat brass insert between the area under the big diapram and the passageway to the main jet should be a check vavle? It had something in it and I poked it through with a dental pick and blew it out with cleaner and compressed air. Sounds like I messed it up. Is that replaceable? Thanks for your help.
