I finally pulled the carburetors to clean them today, but before I disassemble them any further I wanted to check and see if I am missing parts. I have looked through the carb posts on this site and reviewed both my Haynes and Yamaha service manuals; all of the photos that I have seen show additional parts. The circle on the linked photo highlights the area of concern. My service manual doesn't specifically call out the missing piece, but the Haynes manual calls out for the removal of a "blanking plug and washer" to expose the pilot jet. If I am following this correctly, I am missing the "blanking plug and washer". Are these parts that I need to try to replace or am reading more into the disassembly procedures?
