Is the top of the carb slide supposed to go

[1sreamin350]

Is the hole in the slide supposed to be open or covered?

 

[blaster105]

that is the correct way

[Ducman]

Yes, uncovered

when the other piece is dropped in, it covers the hole anyway with the spring tension....what's the difference which way? They screw down from either position. Good question.

I was trying to figure out this the other day too when I was changing my clip position for the first time. I had to pull out the clymers manual to make sure I had it right. I still dont know why it has to be uncovered though.....I'm sure someone with more carb knowledge will know.
