Default Choke Rod

I can't find a picture anywhere, could someone please tell me the order of the rubber washer, metal washer and leather washer starting from the firewall going towards the spring sleeve and Carb.
Thanks Steve

Cupped leather washer first followed by the metal cupped washer in front of the spring. Flared end of sleeve to firewall.

Bratton's 2014 catalog page 66 does have the two donuts mixed up, as the lower one is called the donut for the firewall, but is actually the one for the tank bracket. Walt does point out that the firewall grommet is NOT originally used, as Mitch also points out.
