these older carb all have a small vaporizing chamber in the idle circuit. fuel goes up the side of the carb thanks to the crankcase vacum then goes into the small chamber via the pointy LS needle.
the fuel then gets sucked in the crankcase . this becomes the main source of fuel at start up. As the throttle opens up the high speed circuit takes over and less and less fuel comes from the low speed circuit
