Thanks Dave
I got the plug out before you had gotten back to me. I made a sure location by following the hole in the venturi. And it was the one that I started to drill, the one in the boss that hangs down, which is the one that you have circled in the photo.
Let me add my bit of info to this thread, in that it is NOT a brass plug. There is a brass plug just behind this one. The plug is exactly 1/4" dia. The brass plug behind it, looks to be all of 3/8" dia. Is it possible that some of the correct 1/4" plugs are brass. Or I would wonder how many have drilled out the wrong plug.
Anyway, this job turned out perfect.....thanks Dave.....and others.
