I am currently rebuilding my 40idfs and noticed something.. compared to the Haynes Weber Carb Manual, my IDFs are different: they do not have the starter valves or mechanisim (on the side oppisite the diaphram) at all...

it simply has a blank plate there... but under the plate it appears to have the places for the starter mecahnism and the valves... they just aren't there...

should I worry? is this a big deal? the carbs seemed to run fine... I am only rebuilding them on principle...
were there IDFs without the starter valve stuff? early ones?

if this is important, can you get just that part?

that's what I figured... damn manual threw me though...

I knew they were working fine... and every carb I've EVER seen you had to pump 1-2 times when cold...

thanks for the info!
