Hello I'm new to the nitro cars world and I've made a school boy error and wound the idle control needle all the way out and I can't figure out how it goes back together. I can get the needle screwed back in but then when I screw it in or out it makes no adjustment to the idle gap! Help would be highly appreciated!! The model is a hsp backwash with a 18 engine also if that helps.Thanks!!
 
There is a slot that the idle screw must engage on the valve.

Assuming it is a rotary carb, just make sure the valve is inserted all the way into the carburetor body, hold it to where there is a tiny gap and then install the idle screw.
 
Cheers for the reply I got it back together but broke the little seal in the process so have ordered a new carb as couldn't find the seal anywhere! Can you recommend any good websites to get parts off for the hsp backwash or the team Infinty 18 engine it has? Thanks again.
