[EaCastillo00]

Guys i dont know what to do, i dont know how, but the thread inside my carb where the iddle screw goes stripped, i dont know what to do, can it be repaired or sent to the lathe, maybe they can make new thread, dont now im kinda stressed, what do you guys think??

stock carbs with removed tors im assuming?

you could always try re drilling it to see if it cleans it up at all and re tapping it. if not you could try and drill and tap to the next size and find a screw similar to the idle screw that it comes (smooth pointy size) with the tors removal kit as long as it moves the slide up.

Stock carbs are cheap. Just replace it. Not worth fucking up a motor over.

Yes, stock carbs, with tors removal, but how would i find a bigger screw that works for iddling?

That was a 30 second search.

 

I'm sure there are others out there and maybe even a single carb. Just put in a little effort.

 

Not trying to be a dick, but there are many options if you look.

When this happened to me, I took a 1/4 inch bolt and ground the end to a round nose and removed the threads for abot 3/8 inch. Drill and tap the carb for 1/4 inch and you are good to go. Use the idle screw from the kit as a pattern.
