Small Engines (Lawn Mowers, etc.): Blower carb adjusting tool, Carburetor, Adjusting Tool


Question
I have a Craftsman gas powered leaf blower which is a couple of years old.  Where can I purchase the special tool for adjusting the carburetor?

Thanks.

Answer
Hello Dave:

>>I have Questioned Several of the Carburetor OEM's about these Tools and have been Told that the Carburetor Adjusting Tools are for Certified Repair Shops Only. This is Supposed to be an "EPA" Regulation the Carburetor OEM's follow.
>>You can Purchase a Short Piece of Brake Line Tubing that is Slightly Smaller than the Carburetor Adjusting Screws and After Cutting Off the Tubing Flare, then Lightly Tap the Tubing Over the Adjusting Screw Head and than Adjust the Carburetor in this Manner.
>>I am still Searching for a Supplier for these Carburetor Tools and will List the Supplier if and when I Locate One.
>>If you Hit a Snag or this Does Not Correct the Problem,  I am Here if You Require More Assistance. Hope this Helps. Let me Know What Happens, Please. May the All Mighty Bless You and Yours. Be Safe and Happy. Thanks.

Good Luck
