    Missing carb. screw?

    I was taking my carb. apart earlier to clean it and put in a bigger main and I saw this little threaded hole beside the overflow screw that looked like it was missing a screw or something. I looked at the exploded view of the carb on motosport and it doesn't even show the hole. I took a couple pics of it, anybody know if there is supposed to be something in that hole?

    The correct size brass screw from a hardware store could be used I guess.

    Mine has a screw, not sure wtf it does. If the quad runs fine Id let it be, maybe seal it up with rtv if you cant find a screw that fits.
