I picked up a Chinese carb for my 200S. At first glance I noticed the overflow port has a brass plug in it. I'm assuming this needs to be free to vent any fuel if needed?? Anybody have any experience or any feedback on this? I realize that the port on the carb may not be called an "overflow", but it vents or at least on the OEM carb it has a vent tube connected to it. Seems like I've seen some fuel vent from it in the past (oem) TIA

I have one too, I left it the way it came, although I had to rejet with actual mikuni jets, haven't had any issues so far, but I do have the OEM carb ready to go if anything gets crazy

Yours had the brass plug also? I've seen Chinese carbs that didn't. That's why I was curious, wanted to make sure it wasn't going to be a prob..
