I think it's to hold the flap at whatever angle you set it at by
catching in one of those three bulges or dents in the side of the
ventilation box.  Describe this pin some more to me--I noticed
I have the spring and its little holder but no pin.  Cool.

I also have (in my Clymer manual) a diagram of how the internal stuff
wants to go.  Send your snailmail address if you want a copy of it.
