Identifying the Fuel Screw and it's components.
What to look for when removing the cap from your Fuel Screw.
This is the protective cap that covers the Fuel Screw upper left of housing, it is held on by an o-ring.
This is a shot of the crimped on collar just before it was about to fall of.
Here you can see the damage it did to the threads of the Fuel Screw.
Your degree of damage may vary.
If you decide to chase them with a die or thread chaser, remember it is of METRIC pitch.
If you look into the backside of the cap in the foreground you can see the o-ring that captures the nut on the fuel screw, once this collar is removed the cap may no longer stay in place.
In this picture you can also see what the governor spring and the assembly consisting of retaining pin /compression spring /spring seat AKA Top Hat look like.
Also the manual shut down lever at the upper left of the housing.

Check the sticky for the preferred procedure to avoid it from hanging.
