Idle Set Screw On Carb 86 Spree

The issue I am having is that the idle set screw apparently does not seat tight as when the spree is rode the vibrations turn this screw. If I remember correctly there is supposed to be a rubber washer type around this screw. Any ideas on how to fix this?

not sure about a rubber piece but there should be a spring that puts pressure on the screw

bc117 is correct the spring holds the mixture screw in place. And you can NOT buy the spring separate from the screw.

SCREW SET B 16028-GC8-004 about $12.00

Thanks Bear, looks like I will be buying a set then as the spring is incognito

You might be able to find a spring of the right size at the hardware store.
