[DML] Re: Mysteries of the CO Adjusting Screw Unravelled

["Jeff Phillips" <jmanis2@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ok I took the top off of my mixture unit and determined that my 
screw in infact present, I think, maybe.  Actually I'm pretty sure 
its there but its so striped out that the head is nearly 
unrecognizeable.  For a 1 in a million chance I filled the striped 
out hex hole with JB Weld and am letting it cure with a 3mm wrench 
(wrapped in saran) in hopes that I'll be able to recreate a usable 
head.  I'm highly doubtful that it will work so I'm in the market 
for a new screw, unit, whatever.  If you've been following this 
thread and are having a hard time viualizing this pesky 
screw/airflow meter/balance arm then turn to your books and follow 
along page D:01:05 and you'll what Bill described.  The two arms are 
spring loaded together and the screw simply pushed down the plunger 
arm changing the relative agle of it to the balance assembly.  The 
bottom of the screw is the flat washer end so its threaded up from 
the bottow originally before assembly making it impossible to 
remove.  It does nothing though to prevent a previous owner from 
destroying the head of the screw!  :)
