Default saito mixture screw question

Hello
I recently purchased a used 120 saito off this site. The mixture screw can be turned fairly easy. Is there an oring for the screw that might be bad or just the locking tab just weak?
Thanks
Jeff

The locking tabs are toast. I use the old way of a piece of fuel tubing on my saito 150. I did that after losing my needle valve. I know that is not the answer you were hoping for, but it works.

Sounds like weak tension on the locking tab. Just bend it so it rubs against the needle harder.
