I used a E.A.R. yellow foam ear plug on the hole in the filter. Well, cut4fun had a set of EAR plugs and did it at my suggestion as I read about doing it this way on a forum somewhere a few years ago. It has been about three years and the plug is still there. I have the original metering valve cover but just used the foam plug. It is a good running Chainsaw.

I've used the Walbro WAT repair kits in the Chinese replacement carbs and it worked out just fine.
