  3. Hi all thanks for all your help i managed to get it out. .yippee. .i used plenty of plus gas for couple days to start then heat and some hospital forceps(i think thats what there called..locking tweezers )modified to fit in hole managed to move it enough to loosen its grip in in air passage then used very small blade screwdriver to push tip back through passage..now looking for new mixture screws if anbody has any or knows where i can find some..thanks again people. ..😊😊
  4. Thanks for all advice,the problem is that the volume screw snapped on the tapered needle past end of threads no threads left in carb its flush with air passage so nothing to grip or turn,i can see end of needle as its the screw which has a hole on bottom face off carb which bolts to manifold,tried to use modified needle nose pliers to grip and push it back through hole when carb body hot but not budging..probably have to bite the bullet and get another carb in case cannot remove it and keep at this one dont like things beating me..wish i new how someone snapped it must of been a trained gorilla mechanic lol..anybody have a carb or know were i can get one please get in touch. ..many thanks..stig.
  5. Ive soaked it in plus gas to try loosen it up but no joy looks as if its been snapped for quite a while end of threaded part i took out was tarnished,its seems as if its been screwed in as far as it could possibly go and then some,going to take very small drill bit and extremely steady hands to drill and smallest extractor available. .o happy days...thanks for help..:kiss:
