Carburetor broken???
I'm having trouble adjusting the idle screw... When I turn the screw nothing happens...
When I turn the screw counter clock wise too much.. the screw will come out and the throttle will pop out...
I can not adjust it in anyway...the screw is useless...I took it my LHS last time and they can adjust for some reason...
I have no idea how to fix it... please give me some info before I send it to my LHS

RE: Carburetor broken???
Your engine has 3 screws. High Speed Needle, Low Speed Needle and the Idle Screw.
The Idle screw needs to be only turned in small increments to make large changes. Also this should be done with the engine above the idle to that the screw turns easily. Typically this screw should barely need to be adjusted.
