Carter AVS questions

Found this document about rebuilding the AVS and my AVS didn't have the little discharge check needle shown in the image attached when I rebuilt it. Is this something I need or what?

Every AVS/AFB I've rebuilt had one of those, or similar. I believe it blocks the passage that allows the accel pump well to suck fuel from the bowl, and not from the squirters.
