I''ll bet I'm not the only one who isn't happy with the awkward location of mixture screws or the cost of Honda's special tool. My homebrew option works fine and for less than $6 it's a nice addition to the ole toolbox.

Nice work John.
Thanks for taking the time to write this up and photo document it.
I know it's a pain in the *** to stop every few minutes and take a picture to show the job step by step. But it sure makes everything clear for others.
Love this doityourself stuff.

A old chain link with ground out larger holes is used to press the link together prior to staking.
