The selinoid is an anti back fire devise. Serves no other purpose. Just take the needle/ plunger out and move on.
The mikuni carb is a superior to the walbro as far as fuel metering is concerned. I wouldn't personally change it out when disabling the selinoid is pretty easy.
Our mailbox is across the street from our lane, and in a row with about 10 other mailboxes. There is at least 6 other boxes before you get to mine. Every year after we moved in, we would have to replace the mailbox at least 2-3 times per winter. Kept complaining about it to pendot. They used every excuse under the sun. Old post, slush, box is too close to the road (with paper about proper mailbox placement.) Etc.
at some point someone decided it just wasn't their problem anymore. Now we get a letter(every year) before plow season saying they won't replace mail boxes unless you can prove it's been hit by the truck or plow. They arnt responsible for what happens with the snow coming off the plow.
Ironically, since we started getting those "were not liable for our drivers screw up" letters, we haven't had a single mail box taken out in that entire line of mail boxes.
