I bought a carb rebuild kit and though I am experienced, as far as automotive mechanics go- this was, admittedly my first time doing so on a bike.
I accidentally turned this small nut too tight and broke the head off. I can’t seem to find anywhere in the service manual(s) where it identifies this part/number.
Any suggestions on where to get another part, so i can finally put my project back together?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks so much! That helps a bit-
Would you recommend just tapping out the broken threads, from what I’m assuming is the needle guide/tube?
That’s the biggest problem I’m foreseeing in this snafu I’ve gotten into.
Thanks again in advance

GTRPoints: 2,411The brass screw would strip itself before the silver collar does , but if the jet needle collar is damaged, tapping a thread and using a suitable carb hollow nut is the abyss here, i wouldn’t know many that go that deep lol.
