Trying to chase down an erratic idle issue. Pulled the air screw out and I thought there was suppose to be an "o-ring" on the end of it. This has more of a stepped rubber washer. Could this be the issue? I've attached pics as good as I can get. Lemme know. Thanks
Not sayin I fixed it but I reseated and cleaned off a tiny burr the little "oring" and it's idlin a lot more consistent now. So hopefully when the rebuild happens it'll be golden.

When you rebuild and the opening for that mixture screw is big enough__ a Qtip and some polishing compound (car wax stuff) can possibly clean up what might have burred that o ring.
have done that to more than one needle seat on a carb
