q-jet well plugs

alan junkerman · 05-17-2007, 05:31 PM

recently i started rebuilding a carb and noticed that the well plugs had been replaced with a o-ring style plug and they were loose, so i shopped at the local parts store but no luck, does anyone know where i can get some of these?

Just leave them in and put some JB weld on to seal them.

after i posted this topic i was going to ask about if anyone has seen HP gain by drilling out the fuel wells to take out the restriction? i drilled my out with a .196 drill bit and it looks like it would help the airflow a bunch...
