I just love adjusting the idle circuit on my Raptor while the carb is on the atv!

I believe the guys that designed the Raptor have amazingly small hands! What a joke! What do you guys use to adjust the idle circuit screws?
Who sells/rents midgets (with small hands) that specialize in working on Raptor carbs? If the midget does'nt come with AT LEAST 2 sets of boots, I would'nt be interested though[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]

I use a flexible telescoping screwdriver. Got it at a quality hardware store (not home depot)

Thanks Blue, I have tried a larger flexible screwdriver with no luck. I will try a smaller one. When you adjust yours while running, does the engine respond as it should (increasing and decreasing rpms) and when you find the location the engine likes for one side and you adjust the other, do you have to go back and re-adjust the previous carb again? Again, thanks.

Face can be changed at the bottom of your profile page.
Remark below the face is based on # of posts.

Blue, I found a smaller flexible screwdriver. I can adjust this baby now while it's running. I even sent the midget back....he drank all of the refreshments anyway. A big THANKS for the enlightenment.
