Pilot screw tool
Has anyone used the Moto-Pro pilot screw adjustment tool on the KLX250?
Looks like it would still be hard to get in there with the Keintech t-handle extended fuel screw especially when the exhaust is hot.
I'm looking at the lay of the land under that carb and I'm wondering if there's enough clearance for the Moto-Pro tool. reviews say it takes 1.5" of clearance underneath to use the tool. That starter looks a bit close. Wondered if anyone has tried it.
I used to use a short slotted bit and reach right under the old KLX 331 with no clearance issues.

It's been a few months since I've been in there. But I think I hold it between my index and middle finger and roll the bit. Fortunately, the screw isn't under a lot of tension and can be manipulated with my fingers.

I have the motion pro pilot screw tool (not sure if its the same one ?) and it does not work on the klx, there just isn't enough room between the starter and that crap to fit it.
Hopefully the TM36-68 will have better access to the mixture screw.

t handle screw if your one to futz around with the jetting. the t handles can be pushed and pulled with one finger or a stick off the trail. The gnurled **** styles need two fingers so your still trying to get your hand in there. If your a set it and forget it type just adjust it a little at a time when the bike is cooled off with your improvised mini winny homemade contraption. Be lucky the klx only has one screw.

Don't even waste your money on that stupid Kouba screw!! Try and make an adjustment once! Your fingers will be meat after the first attempt! It's a joke! Whatever you do don't drop it, it's toast. Like THEY said....get a flat blade bit. After your riding and that stupid screw works itself loose....good luck trying to find that super tiny washer and o ring. People don't tell you that part of it!
