I just put a piece of duct tape over the hole...I have gone into those carbs to free up a sticking needle when the ski has been setting up too long but have never attempted to replace the diaphragm...looks like an easy procedure but it is a very thin delicate piece of rubber so I guess it would have to be put on just right...also, get a new one without much shelf life which could cause it to be a little stiff/brittle...but I am really just shooting from the hip here..best talk to someone who has done this procedure before...also, you may have to get the entire carb rebuild kit just to get the diaphragm...good luck with it....
