Default Fuel Screw mod for about $2.00

I picked up a brass hook at Lowes

Cut the end off and filed it like a flat head screwdriver to fit the fuel screw then solder them together

This made it easier for me the adjust the screw without spending $40 and it only takes 10 minutes

I like that! I don't have a Lowes store near me, what are the hooks used for? I might me able to find them at my local hardware store.

All you need is something brass that is about the same diameter of the screw such as an eye hook you should be able to find them at any hardware store

Default 10 Minutes?

Did you not have to take the carb off to get the screw out and back in?

Of course I took the carb off 10 minutes is the time it took to mod the screw.
