So, those of you who have followed my recent threads will know I bought a donor TRX250 for the engine to go into my finances 250.. The engine is a good one and runs well, it's way overdue a timing chain replacement though so that's about all it needs.
I soaked the carb for a few days as it was heavily coroded from the sea water then attempted to give it a new lease of life but, the fuel mixture screw snapped off!! Anybody had this happen before, is there a way of saving the carb or is it ready for the junk pile?
On the plus side, the carb I thought I was having issues with I bolted on and it works a treat, so all that irratic idling on the old engine must not have been the carb. Out of curiosity does anybody have any ideas what else that could have been?
