Before you start pounding on your carb. with an impact screwdriver,
go to your local Lowe's (they're the only place I've seen them) and
get a couple of the phillips tips with teeth. I think they're made by
Bosch, I started using these a couple years ago and they have not
failed to remove a good,  undamaged phillips screw. They are just
the tip so you'll need to come up with a handle or adapter to 1/4"
for a socket wrench. By teeth I mean they have small ridges on
the part that fits into the screw head, they fit so well the screw will
stay on the tip as if magnetized.


Mile,

P/N?

TIA!

I ran into a similar problem back when I had a 250cc Chinese scooter.  What exactly are they making these carbs out of?  The metal seems quite soft.

After the last disaster I was tempted to replace any screw I could with stainless steel.

I replaced every screw I could with "normal" stainless steel socket head screws. Life is much simpler for future cleanings.
