A gasket is located between the body and the fuel bowl. The fuel bowl is molded of plastic and includes an integral well, and a mixing screw housing as well as a primer housing. A plastic nozzle extends from the well through the venturi insert into a through passage into the body. The venturi insert is made of plastic material and includes molded grooves therein which form passages with the through passage of the body. The nozzle is resiliently urged against the gasket and the body by means of a spring located in the well thereby sealing the nozzle to the body.
