OK Guys, here's my most recent embarrassing moment: while rebuilding the carb on a H70 in a TORO snowblower that's older than some of you, I ran the idle speed mixture screw in too tight and snapped the point off in the orifice...
I've been rebuilding stuff for years -- decades -- and never done this before. I don't want to have to pay $72.00 for a new carb to get this blower running again, but I also don't have any tricks up my sleeve for this one.
In my defense, the idle screw in the kit only screwed in about two turns, which strikes me as odd considering the generic starting point for adjustment is 1-1/2 turns.
Any help? Boy, is my face red...
