Would not run correct, needed carb

I bought a new carburetor. and it still did not run correct. After looking closer I noticed the heat dam was cracked. It would rev up too high because the crack in the heat dam was letting too much air into the engine. Once I put the new heat dam and gasket in it runs fine.
