       Orifice chambers

       I'm rebuilding the carb on my CS-302s. I've never done a
       complete carb rebuild before and probably don't have to but this
       is partly just for practice. I want to open up the orifice
       chambers and make sure they're clean and I just wanted to make
       sure that I've got the right idea on how to do that. Do I just
       punch a little hole in the cap and pry it out?

       Good little guide on carb fixes and trouble shooting etc. Also

       WELCH PLUG
       y
       Under the extreme conditions of a clogged idle port
       and channel, it may be necessary to remove the
       welch plug.  Do this operation very carefully.  If the
       carburetor is equipped with the priming pump, do
       not attempt to remove the welch plug unless you
       are certain the check valve in the idle chamber is
       malfunctioning.
       y
       Use a small 2/32 to 3/32 inch diameter sharp
       pointed punch to pierce the welch plug.
       y
       Just below the welch plug there is a thin casting wall where the
       idle and secondary holes are located.
       Punching through this area will ruin the carburetor body
       casting.  Let the punch just pierce the welch plug,
       then carefully pry the welch plug out of the body casting.
       y
       If the carburetor is equipped with the plastic filling in the
       idle chamber, it will be unusable when the welch
       plug is removed.  So, replace the plastic filling.
       Note:  It is often un-necessary to remove the welch plug.  Test
       for plugged progression holes by spraying
       carb cleaner into the L needle hole.  If cleaner sprays out the
       progression holes there is no need to remove
       the welch plug.
