POS mixture screw

POS crap mfer stupid California smog crap. They premenantly lock in the mixture screw on one of the carbs. First I tried to cut a slot with a dremel that didnt work so I had to drill it out and use an extractor.
Another week to get the replacement part. Grrrrrrrrrrrrr

I agree with you on all the "stupid California smog crap", but I have an '03 Ca.
VTR and have no trouble using the little Dynojet "D" tool to adjust those screws any way I want. Unless a PO jammed that screw tight, I don't know why you couldn't move it.
