This idea was "borrowed" from another commercially available tool (~$30).

Mine is made with a fat wire for the shaft, 2 thick washers, and a bolt. It is joined at the important places with JB Weld and the tip is not hardened. I don't have a welder or the $30 for the tool!

Just hold the blade to the idle mixture screw and pull or push with the other tool. Unless they are stuck. Then take out your carbs and clean them!

I love to see other peoples homemade tools, lets see more!

The JB weld broke off, I had a friend weld a new improved version (slightly bigger knurled wheel, and a more hardened tip). This one will last forever! Camera is broken, though so no pics.
