Yup, the screws on the float bowls are stripped. I've cracked 5 of them but there's 3 more that will not budge. I've tried needle nose but gotten nowhere. Hit it with blaster a bunch. I do not have a small enough pair of vice grips. Can't seem to find the right tool. Would needle vice grips be much different than the needle nose I'm trying with now? Why would they build such a flimsy carb?
