For Marvel Schebler carburetors my D120 Installation Manual states that the temperature probe is lcated on the fwd face of the MA-3 carburetor & the aft face o the MA-4 (which it says are used on 6 cyl engines).  Well my 4 cyl 0-320-D1A has the MA-4SPA & there is no hole in the aft face, but it has a "plugged" hole on the fwd face which I am assuming is for the carb temp probe.

The plugged hole appears to have been plugged with a soft aluminum/putty (Devcon?).  Is this the correct probe hole, and what is the best method of removing this "plug" mateial? Does an "easy out" work?

Thanks & wishing you all great aviating in 2014
