DAMMIT! NEED AN AIR MIX SCREW - PLEASE HELP

Post by twsnagel »

Hi folks -
Last night, I was out riding, and all of a sudden, massive loss of power, etc.

Turns out that I dropped my air mix screw out on the ground somewhere.

No problem, I have a spare carb, I take the air mix screw out and replace it. Tonight, I'm out riding, and doesn't it fall out again.

I look at my spare carb, and see that there is supposed to be a spring behind the air mix screw, to keep it in tension and from falling out. Well, super for noticing now... and now I don't have an air mix screw to replace it with anymore.

Would some kind soul pop one in an envelope and post it up to Canada? I'll pay any reasonable amount... but I'm dead in the water until I get another.

Just so we're all on the same page, it's the lower screw (or middle, if you count the drain screw)

PM me here, or send email to twsnagel@shaw.ca

Thanks,
Tyler

I can paypal you if I get an amount by 8:00 Mountain time tomorrow, otherwise, it'll be Monday night. (I'm going away for Canadian thanksgiving).

Thanks so much, MySpree. Remember to send me your PayPal address!

Hey Myspree do you have an idle screw. Its the top screw. If you do let me know. I would really appreciate it. I was riding it one day and i went to decellerate and it just shut off. I got home and took a look and it wasn't there. Thanks
