    VM carb adjustment tool

    Hi guys just a quick one. Just received my carb adjustment tool (the long driver with a flat head inside a socket) and I expected the bolt size of the adjuster on the carb to be about 13mm or something. The socket on this one looks about 10mm. Anyone know the adjuster nut size on the VM carbs? Cheers, Steve
