Thanks so much for your reply. What kind of carb is yours?
This is a stock KeiHin carb. It was rebuilt previously by a Honda motorcycle/ATV mechanic.
Here is the inside of the silver cylinder (WTH is the technical term for this?) with all the pieces removed. Notice the cratering around the center hole. Not sure if that is pitting (seems like alot) or that was done intentionally.

Here is another shot. Notice the two washers stacked one on top of the other in the central hole

Here are all the pieces. The two small washers were in that central hole, one stacked on top of the other.

This view shows the metal disc in place. There is no way for it to insert with the tab facing down, as there is no groove or anything else for it to sit in.

Here it is all put together, minus the needle. Notice the washers in the central portion of the silver cylinder underneath the metal disc. My clip fits into a groove in the silver cylinder.
I'm pretty sure the way I have the throttle cable going through is wrong, once I looked at it once I was taking it apart. I think the disc needs to be rotated so that the throttle cable goes through the teardrop cutout in the central area, and the hole I currently have it going through is meant to be lined up over a corresponding hole in the bottom of the silver cylinder.
