I'll submit screws are included in commercial carb kits specifically to eliminate the need for metering tip cleaning...for those not aware, not able or not willing to perform clearing the carbon off the tip. I cleaned all these in about 5 minutes today, routinely do so in every refurb I do.

If tip is visibly bent ....*something*...a physical force ...has caused it, certainly not "normal wear".

I'll further submit....i'd reuse any of these screws as spares where needed and I have yet to see or hear clear, realistic evidence to negate that.

Carbs requiring a different number of turns to hit the sweet spot in each cylinder is nothing unusual at all, many other factors combine to determine.

Tomorrow, I'll post about the dreaded "super glue in the bowls".

My kits are effective, reliable, affordable, competitive.
