Altitude Compensator Removal Question
It's been ages since I tweaked any Nikki carbs so I've gotten forgetful.
I removed an alt compensator from a friend's Carb, JBWelded the three holes under it and plugged the vacuum source on the other side of the Carb. What I can't remember is the two little tubes just above the altitude compensator. Do I block those off too, or are those supposed to be vented to atmosphere to equalize pressure inside or something?

Ok, so blocking them was the right thing to do. That means my Carb issue / vacuum leak lies elsewhere. Damn.
Thanks Jeff! You've got all my answers tonight!
