Carburetor top cap removal

How do open top cap bolts? My screws are so tight that there is no way to open without breaking them... I really want to adjust the needle height.

They use locktite on everything.
If you support the bottom of the flange, you can use a small impact driver.
But, you can just grab the head with a vice grip and wrench it off.

After you do that replace the screws with Allen head screws. All of them on the carb. No more headaches. Smiley

Very helpful answer batman. That will help him track down the screws.

They sure make it easier to work on the carb. Smiley
