i was rebiulding my carbs on my gs750 and was almost done when the worst happened. i was running my fuel srews in to lightly seat them then back them out when i noticed a piece of one sticking through the little whole. ive tried everything i can think of but still cant get it out. ive even tried heating the carb in the oven a little thinking it might help to loosen it but no luck. please help!

another stupid question. i've tried searching and havent found anything. does anyone know where i can get new fuel screws?Comment

Z1 sells (or at least used to sell) a rebuild kit that came with the fuel screw. I ordered a few sets for my 79 850 but they have the same fuel screw. Look on ebay as well, I've seen several different vendors selling carb rebuild kits that included the fuel screw, be careful where ever you buy the kit though, most kits do not include the fuel screw, just make sure you ask specifically.Comment

Hi,
Here are just a few of the vendors in your "mega-welcome" that sell carb parts. Chances are that you may have to buy entire carb kits to get the pilot screws (around $25-$30 per kit - you'll need 4). Do some shopping around, send an email or two, etc. Availability and prices often change from vendor to vendor. Z1 is a great place to start. Then...
Sudco International - Carburetor parts, Classic & Late Model Replacement & Performance Parts, etc.
http://www.sudco.com/ (http://www.sudco.com/oemcarbparts.html)
MotorcycleCarbs.com - Carburetor parts, etc.
http://www.motorcyclecarbs.com/index.cfm
Jets R Us - Carburetor parts, filters, gauges, etc.
Parts'n'More - Classic UJM parts (i.e. gasket sets): $35 minimum, $5 shipping to lower 48
Thank you for your indulgence,

The trick is to use the ADVANCED SEARCH, and then set the search to TITLES ONLY.
Searching "fuel screws" turned up these threads. Some are about getting the broken tips out and others are for sourcing new screws.
