Hi Doug,

Okay, It is becoming clear how you block of the intake, and exhaust for pressure testing.

This apparently is done, leaving the carb and muffler in place, with sheet metal sandwiched between the muffler, or carb areas, I assume with a gasket on each side of the sheet metal in order to form an air-tight seal.
I will somehow make a fitting to thread into the spark plug hole that will accept my pop-off tool, which I can then apply about 5 PSI.
I will also find a piece of clear 1/4" fuel line in order to monitor fuel flow during start-up.
I will inspect the carb flange gasket too, also new territory for me. Also the pulse passageway, new to me too; I will study this topic online.

I will report back,
Eric
