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?=20
