Not to pee in your cornflakes, but that’s a mod I would NEVER do. Look at the size of the fuel pump compared to the carb bowl that only holds a few thimbles of fuel. If your float sticks you will be blindly pumping fuel everywhere with the primer. Without it, if float sticks it will start then flood out and die, prompting you to go inspect the situation. After 6 months non use, mine starts within 5 seconds of cranking anyway. But my choke is set correctly.
