Default Carb screw fell out!

Hi guys,

Need a little help from the experts - I have a 50cc brand X quad. While my daughter was riding it it just quit running. I ran up and we could see gass pouring out of the bottom of the carb bowl and a screw was missing from the hole the gas was puring out of. Looks like it just vibrated and backed out. Ran perfect right up until then.

My question is...

Will any screw that fits work or is this a special screw for carb adjustments that I need to order? It's at the bottom of the carb bowl. Of course we looked all over and can't find the screw on the ground.

Anyone else have this problem? A little threadlocker will be a part of the fix I'm sure...

Thanks as always....

Sounds like it's just the carb drain plug. As long as it's the same thread, any bolt (well, except for too long) would do. On the bright side, you know the drain works properly. (always looking for that ray of sunshine)
