The engine didn't die when I pulled the wire off the right side carb. So just to be sure, I pulled it off both sides at the same time, and the engine continued to run. Maybe the type of carb I have doesn't require this to be connected?
Just to make sure I yanked the correct wire, each of my carbs has 2 electrical connections. One of them attached to a round thing on the rear of the carb, which I assume is the choke. The other attaches to a cylindrical fitting on the side of the carb closes to the outside of the engine.
