What year is your carb? Or more importantly, what kind of solenoid was there? Did it come off with 3 screws? Or did it unscrew from the carb?

Ok, now theres still a big brass bushing inside, pull that out and remove the plunger thats trapped behind it. Now you can cover the big hole. Get a 20mm freeze plug and press it into the hole. The other fitting on the side is for crankcase ventilation, if your not using it, cap it. Or just hoook it back up. Do you have emissions on the car? Shoulda asked that first.

If its per the tutorial, then you keep the side nipple. Go to the auto parts store and ask for it. Its just a stamped metal plug.
