[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 299411, member: 3278"] Hopefully you disassembled past where I see the carburetor at this point. If not then all it looks like you did was remove the low speed needle, drop the bowl and pull the float? The "residue" you are looking at is a fiber packing which should have been removed prior to soaking the carburetor. That has to be removed mechanically usually. In an OEM kit you will have at least two fiber packing washers and a nylon one to replace it with. If you went aftermarket on the kit you may or may not have the right parts to replace with. [/QUOTE]
