I was looking at a video on how to rebuild a Motorcycle carb and they were using an easy adjust mixing screw. I would like to get one for my scooter. Has anyone seen one that will fit our carbs. Maybe the ones I was looking at will???

Here's a link

Just as easy is to remove your mixture screw, it's brass, clean it up really well and remove the o-rings. Then it's as simple as soldering on a knurled brass machine screw.

It's not like we are adjusting these daily. I'm missing how the extra expense to eliminate at most 2 minutes screwdriver manipulation. Well to each his own I guess.

If it was a little cheaper, why not?

Na, it's not "cheaper" you need.

(Ya cant get much cheaper then a China scooter now can ya?) <--no.
A proper carb adjustment is needed.

Is where you need to go IF you have a 2 cycle style scooter. (2T)

My carb is tuned just fine. But, thanks for the links anyway.
