The carb on the bottom of my 88 85 force needs to have the idle adjusted. I screwdriver does not fit as the darn cowl bottom is in the way.<br />Is there a special tool to do this or a way to adjust this thing at all? I could pull the cover off of all three carbs but its still hard to get that of the bottom carb and still as hard to adjust the screw.

Re: Adjusting carb on bottom

the easiest way i've found is with a screwdriver for adjusting carbs (not being smart-a**) has a flexible shaft and magnetic 1/4" head that will hold 1/4" flat screwdriver bit. works great for me or short piece of steel rod with tip ground flat. since no real torque is needed to turn mix screws (hopefully) tool strength is not an issue
