Bizarre 路
been having a bit of trouble holding idle lately
Tune the 34 pict
1 turn out air by pass
2.5 turns out for the mixture screw
After a days driving i have to heel toe to keep the idle up at lights.
Check the carb and the air by pass has bottomed out
re-tune and alls well
A day later it wont hold idle and the air by pass is bottomed out.
I have a lock on the engine lid so no one is fiddling.
The screw does feel "loose" and yes the O ring is there
Guessing it is a drop of Locktite 222
Anyone else had this problem????

Opps 4 got while your doing one do the other as well
better of replacing both at the same time

whats the internals on the engine like? hopefully thats not the problem but lack of idle is one symptom

Nah - pretty sure it is the problem.
Stuch a blob of blue tac in the recess to hold the screw still and all is well.
Picked up a kit from CSC that has the 2 O rings.
Dave hasnt given back my KY yet so i will have to go to the chemist on Saturday
