Does the Craftsman weed trimmer model 917.773706 have horizontal & vertical holes in the float bowl nut?

I am trying to rebuild the carburetor on my Craftsman wheeled weed trimmer. Does the float bowl nut (117 or 118) have horizontal holes parallel to base and a vertical clearance hole? It's a model 917.773706.

The bowl nut on these engine is also the main jet for the carburetor. The holes or notches in the edge of the bowl nut indicate the size of the jet.

This is a great place to go for advice, especially if you're low on funds and you could resolve the problem before calling and paying a service call, if it's an easy fix. I'm glad you are there for me.
