<div style="color:black;font: 10pt arial;">I was cleaning the float bowls and
adjusting the float height in the carbs on my 1976 TR6. Running too rich
and I thought that was a good first step. New diaphragms (the old ones
were at least 25 years old and at least 1 was cracked), and I realized that I
could not adjust the needle on my right carb. I removed the grub screw
but the needle adjuster is stuck and now it is stripped so that the adjustment
tool just spins. I cannot remove the needle carrier to drive out the
adjuster and star lock washer. I have it soaking in PB Blaster, but I
suspect that the old o-ring (also over 25 years old) has glued the whole works
together. Anyone have an easy solution to removing this little brass
irritation?
