Reply #3 - 09/18/08 at 19:33:56 I watched a guy use a drywall screw & dikes, just pry against a hard spot on the carb. Its really not in there that hard. I dont remember how I went at it, but it must have been easy, cuz I dont remember resorting to extreme means.

You can eat the screw head underneath if you go blasting on through the sheet metal.

I documented it with pictures in the tech section. In the third picture I show the drywall screw, just lock vice grips on it, wiggle left & right and pull.

How hard should you pull? The plug has more resistance than the pull tab on a beer can, and less resistance than most of the girls I dated in high school, if that gives you an idea what to expect. Mind you. I went to High School in the late 70's so factor that in....
