Default what happens if you don't use a carb insert?

Will it hurt my motor? I know run time is affected but will it hurt motor to not run one at all? I lost mine

it actually won't hurt anything as long as your air filter is on it. It will actually give you a some what wider tuning window....

easier tune, cooler motor, more power and top end, but a bit less run time. i've been experimenting with venturis for a while and on some instances its just not worth it, just pull it out and let it eat.
