Was putting a new sticker on my splash guard, and happen to look up, and lo and behold on the back of the carb is misssing something. The fricking rubber cap for the tube that is there for the pcv valve, or brake booster on a car is GONE!!!!!!! No wonder I was having a prob with idle and it not having the power when Brad was doing a few circles with it

little glue/silicone on the outside of the tube will keep em on better. not into the cap itself... could get sucked in.
