They live underneath the coil springs and 4 small cup washers at the base of the idle mixture screws.
By the way, it's Weber with a single 'B'. We wouldn't want to confuse these pieces of automotive legend with the humble BBQ would we now ! :wink:

They could simply be spares or they suit another 'model' of weber carb. Often those kits are packaged to suit various different sizes etc which may have different components. There should really be an instruction sheet in the box telling you what goes where and how many of them. 8)

Um... my BBQ clearly says Weber on it too... :lol:

On a Dellorto DHLA (similar carb) there are O-rings around the idle jet holders.... look there too.
