That port also Supplies the 'Exhaust Gas Recirculation' System.
In Very HOT Climates, This Passage could be Blocked, as in Your case; In an attempt to keep the Manifold Cooler. I'am sure others will chime-in soon.

Yes! As Doug pointed out, the port also heats-up the 'Choke Coil' (through a separate tube) Causing the (Automatic) Choke to Open Fully.


Thanks for the information. No need for warmer air into the carb.
