Carb Spacer - screw head

<< < (2/2)

Orcade-Ian:
Of course, some penetrating fluid and or heat (he's replacing them hopefully) and I forgot to mention another tool in my arsenal is a tiny Teng ratchet which takes 1/4 bits including JIS which are sometimes better than screwdrivers - it's only 3 1/2" long and be wedged sometimes with a block of wood to prevent the bit from 'camming out'.  In the decades that I've been struggling with these and similar recalcitrant little buggers, I've not been beaten yet!

Thanks guys -good info!  I went out and fooled with it a bit and decided for now to leave things alone!  I was concerned that if something went badly wrong I could end up with a problem that required serious work to resolve.  So I put the one screw back in and re-fitted the carbs.  We have a ride planned for tomorrow and based on the way screw-removing was going, I didn't want to jeopardize that.  I think the new carb insulators will be a project for next year!
