[QUOTE="JMichael, post: 286703, member: 7544"] Not familiar with that engine but that hole is most likely a vent for the bowl which ensures there's never a vacuum or + pressure in the bowl. If you forced gas into the bowl fast enough and the float valve was stuck, it would certainly act like an overflow and let the excess gas out though. :lol: That "screw" looks more like a jet than a screw so maybe it's an air jet although I've only seen those used on motorcycle carbs before now.
