Bud moved to Texas and quit making the screws, I believe he had health issues.

Dam it just my luck
Can they be had elsewhere
What exactly where they 8-32 screw with that tapered end with a set screw head or hex head ???

Scott do you carry them?

Yes 8-32 thread, and they were Allen head set screws with the ends turned to match the needle seat angle, if you have access to a lathe you could make your own, the tool could be fashioned from a ball head Allen wrench and a compression spring

Wow thanks for the info
I'm a machinist
I'll make a couple sets no problem
The one in the carb had broke
I guess that tool looks like a extended ball allen wrench
I did know if it had some type of cable on the end to help get in there -like a speedometer cable thanks for the pics they do the trick and I can get going on this thing

Correct.

There was one version where Bud had cut the end of the Allen ball end wrench, about an 1 1/4" off and reattached it with a stiff compression spring to join the pieces together by just sliding the spring over the two ends so it could flex... but this was his latest tool below

Mike

Ok thanks I work on it tomorrow
Thanks for the help

Place a want ad...

hi,
was wondering if you ever got to make any tool and screw that worked on the end carbs .

any luck with making these screws?

Yeah made the screws and tool
ended up makin the tool out of a ball allen wrench and a speedometer cable works fine
I don't have a pic right now but made steel sleeves to go from the seedo cable to the allen wrench and then to a small handle
Im at work now if I can remember ill take a pic and try to post this evening

great very interested

What length screw? Did you use a stainless steel screw?
