I have a 1991 FXSTS and I can never get a screwdriver on to the idle adjusting screw on my OEM CV carb. I think somewhere I've seen a carb adjusting screw driver that flexes ,but it was used on older autos. Has anyone got an easy way to reach the screw without unbolting the carb, and tilting it down a little ?
I removed everything EFI and installed a Mikuni HSR42 carb on a 06 Deluxe 88. You can see the idle adjustment black flex hose with a chrome **** to the left of the A/C. Easy to adjust anytime.
