    Does anyone have any pictures of a mixture screw from an 81 Seca 550. Trying to figure out an issue and would like a comparison. I posted a few of what I thought was my mixture screw in my gallery.

    The Pictures in your Gallery look like FUEL Jets ... NOT ... Mixture Screws.

    There shouldn't be Washers or Springs involved except under the Main FUEL Jet.
    The washer under the Main FUEL Jet holds-down the Emulsion Tube.

    I see what looks to be the spring, washer, and o-ring for your pilot mixture screw, but the "screw" in that same picture is actually a main fuel jet.

    I agree. Where on the carb did those come from?

    They are under the slide diapghram. After a few messages with Chacal and a phone conversation with Rick yesterday, I believe we have it sorted out. Chalk it up to inexperience i guess.
