hey, all,
this is rromig with a fairly dumb question...

before i got the carby kit, i discovered a diaphragm had a tear and didn't have a replacement, so i capped that line and got it running better, but apparently the mixture screw is screwy and the cd-rom says i ought to drill the bugger's plug out and replace the screw ?WTF?

am i naive in transplanting my motorcycle repair nature onto the turkey? i had every intention of chem-dipping the carby and installing ALL NEW BITS.

how says you folks? is this overkill or just my funky nature of preventing the impending re-dos?

also, off the tuning topic... where is the inclinometer sensor located?

many thanks in advance,
rromig :unsure: :unsure: <_< ;)

I just got my carb rebuild kit...$35...plus $25 for the float...NAPA. Also have another carb for spare parts.

I'm going to drill out the mixture screw to make it adjustable...guess you need to be very careful not to overtighten this...will deform the seat.

The inclinometer has a light switch on the trans....

...look at the left side pic...you can see it above the 4WD linkage.
Give a boy a gun-give a biatch a cell phone-and pretty soon you almost got yourself a police state.
