Hi All- couple questions (1) I have the motion pro fancy screw driver needed to adjust the idle screws on the 1100. do you use that going in lenghtwise? (parallel to the head) otherwise if you go in straight the angle prevents full turns on the screw. (screw drive is not flat)
(2) under the #3 carb (one with block off) i have a small gas drip. it's not coming from the drain screw or idle screw or block off but looks like there is a round plate/cover with some screws. is this the accel pump? seems to drip after shut off not while running.. thxs kenai

Stick it in whatever way gets you to the screw..note I had to file off part of the tip to get it to fit up under the carbs around the set screw more easily..If I remember correctly the stop tab gets int eh way a bit..also I filed off the stop tabs..makes life easier and you can leave the flagged caps on and actually turn those little buggers with your hands.

There is a round plate on the inside of each of the carbs which is the cut-off but gas is generally not an issue form them. Check your bole lip?? If u can spray some corn starch or flour in there it will ID the leak for you..
