SH*T ... so what's a new Keiuhn carbuerator for a Yamaha YFZ450 cost?

[Dogmeat]

Went to give my quad it's pre-season freshining up today, so I pulled the carbuerator off, sprayed it out with B12 Chemtool carb cleaner, got rid of the dynojets in it and put regular ones in ...

Went to put it back on the quad, and the damned slide is stuck.

It won't move freely ...

It looked like one of the wheels on the throttle valve assembly was sticking, so I tried to remove the single screw that holds it in place ...

Stripped the damned screw, so now I'm REALLY f*cked

So anyone know what I could do here or what a new carb for a 2007 YFZ450 costs?

Hit up ebay or thumpertalk, you may be able to find a good used one, if you cant fix the one you have.

Check out Edelbrock for a carb. We put one on a freinds Grizzly and worked real good. Not sure if it will work as well on the YFZ but will be cheaper than a new stock one.

As a last ditch effort you could take a cutting wheel and cut a section from the screw and us a flat blade screwdriver to undue, or shape it like a square and use a wrench.

Then replace screw.
