    Doing some cleanup on the carbs. I found the source of a vacuum leak where it looks like it was "repaired" with jb weld. I can fix it the same way but I would rather use the plugs. Is there a source for these? I've searched the usual places such as McMaster but so far I have not found any.
    There are two spots but you can see where the vacuum leak is.

    Gave up on the plugs. It looks like the PO drilled a hole in the disc/plug and pulled them out. I have no idea why unless it was to swap in a different carb. Anyway, I cleaned up the old discs and reinstalled with a new coat of JB weld. Problem solved.
