Sportwerks .26 -- Lost Carb screw

[Network]

Ok so I lost the big screw that holds the carb in place, where on earth do I find a replacement? If I head up to the LHS do you think they will have a replacement for it? Are they universal on these motors or are they specifically designed for each motor? Sorry, I am a noob

I assume you mean the carb retainer post:

I don't believe there is a universal one. I think some other members with big blocks may have a better idea, but most that I've seen are single piece and cinched with a nut rather than a hex screw.

Horizon Hobby is blocked by my companies firewall, is that part listed the one that sits where the carb enters the block and holds it in place? I am not sure what it is called. Although carb retainer screw does sound good heheh. Thank you for the help it is greatly appreciated.

That is the piece that holds the carb in. You remove the screw and slip the 2 pieces through one side of the block where the carb goes in. Then you thread the screw through the other side of the block into the pieces. Drop the carb in and tighten the screw and it pinches the carb in place.

That is exactly what I am looking for Thank you much.
