When you have the air cleaner off the motor and dont want anything falling in you put the lid on it. If your motor is all buttoned up and you have a spare carb sitting on the shelf what better place to store the lid. It also helps keep the dust from settleing into the air bleeds.

Putting a carb in any type of bag for long term storage is not a good idea. Just about any bag cloth or plastic will hold moisture. Moisture causes corrosion and all sorts of other bad things. I found that out the hard way.

Just my 2 cents
