06 Fuel Screw

[Nick110]

Is there anyway to adjust it with out a special tool or something like the zip-ty fuel screw.

And does anybody have a good pic of where it is? I am almost positive I know where it is but i just want to make sure.

its right on the bottom of the carb and u can use a screw driver

for $20 you can get a screw that sticks out so you can adjust it by hand. you can probably get one from c&d

You can't use a screwdriver, its kinda D shaped.

Yea.

So there is no way to adjust it without a special tool or a aftermarket fuel screw.

We are talking about 2006 450r's, they have an FCR carb.

I have the White Brothers fuel screw. It makes it very easy to adjust. I would put some silicone around it though so it doesn't fall out.

Ours fell out almost as quick as we put in in :ermm:
this is what we will do this time around.Ive heard this works.

[Dave400ex]

Yeah I think my first one made it less then a half hour. I've had no problems since we put the silicone around it.

just regular silicone huh? i will have to give that a go


i tried teflon tape but the gas just turned the tape into jello

I'm not having any problem with mine coming unscrewed. Did you guys remember to put on the o-ring and spring from the stock screw?

[redforman]

I did install it correctly, however, I continue to place silicone around the new adjuster as an added measure of safety.

It is sticking out lower than the OEM adjuster and it doesn't hurt to place the silicone around it.

Better safe than sorry.
