same idea as the front pulley bolt plug, there is a chance that it will fail, when it does, it always get stuck either open or closed position.

either one is bad for you.

mind u they are loctite from factory, so if u wanna remove it and install a plug, u might want to hit that spot with a propane torch for 30 seconds first, then unscrew it fast.

Ah, got it. So are you guys plugging this are replacing it with a fixed jet? I would think eliminating it altogether would be bad, no?

think of it this way

Can it fail? yes

How often? Rarely

See above.

no. not bad. personally, i don't see a point to putting an engine together with the stock ball and spring. just don't go ape-shit with the jet size.
