Sorry...ANOTHER Nikki question

OK, so after figuring out what I did wrong the last time I rebuilt the carb on my '79 ( https://www.rx7club.com/1st-generation-specific-1979-1985-18/couple-nikki-questions-521479/ ) I decided to go ahead and tear it down the rest of the way and put in the rebuild kit I got from NAPA. But I can't figure out where the two weights on the right go. I found one on the bench when I was done tearing it down, and I saw the other come out of the throttle body when I was spraying it with compressed air. Any idea where these go? For reference, I included the accelerator pump inlet weight (left) and the accelerator pump outlet weight (second from left).


Thanks,
Rich

They arent checkweights. They're locating pins for the throttle body to main body interface. They're cad plated steel, not brass. On the carb base/TB you see where theres a line of holes? Well they go in 2 of them. Exactly which holes I will tell you for the sum of ONE MILLION DOLLARS!



























J/k! Im at work and dont rememberwhich holes offhand. Dont want to steer you wrong. Ill have a look when I get home in a couple of hours and report back.
