I was trying to take the lid off of my carb today, and it seems that the screws are a little weaker than i expected and i stripped them out. And yes I know how to use a screwdriver but it seems like the metal they are made of is very weak, so my question is now what do I do? I got 1 screw out but the other is still in there and its stripped.

 

use a very small pair of vise-grips and then replace those whit alan head sreews.

 

Agreed, do a search and you can get the size of the screws...

 

try to get stainless ones if you can.
