    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I have tried searching but I am not getting the results I am looking for. Anyway, does anyone know for sure if the kz650 fuel screw will work on the vm22ss carbs? They look to be longer but I don't know if they have the same dimensions. I called Z1 and they werent sure either. Although they look to be the same as the ones they list for the gs750 and such. The company they use for their parts list the same screw for the gs550 and the gs750. So that tells me if the longer screw is used for the kz650 and the gs750 and the shorter screw is used for the gs550 and the gs750 then the longer screw for the should work on the gs550 too, right?! Or am I looking too far into this?

This is the style I would like to use.

I used a set that looked like that on an older set of carburetors I had. Side by side with the original pilot fuel screw from the O-ring groove to the point they appeared to be identical. They were longer from the O-ring groove to the screwdriver notch. In the end the extra length did not make it any easier to adjust if that is what you are after.
 
Yeah that what I was wondering. At least I know now that I can get them just in case I find one that broke or something in the future. I thought about the factory one screw but havent been able to find out if anyone has used them or not.
