    Something else I want to share with you.
    This brass screw pushes against a plastic plug
    that puts tension on the mixture screw to keep
    it from moving. As the plastic plug wears the
    screw keeps getting tightened, but if you go to
    far the screw gets stuck. As its brass one side
    of the head breaks off (see picture) and you
    cant get it to back out. To avoid this snip off a
    piece or 2 of the plastic line from dads string
    trimmer and drop them into the hole between
    the screw and the plug. Just add enough so the
    mixture screw has tension on it again.
