    These also work on the XT carbs RWJ-4-1. No need to remove limiters the tool both disengages the limiter and allows for full adjustment of the carb. When you remove the tool the limiter becomes active again based on where you set the jets.

    Make sure to get your extra. My little splinted end on mine fell off! The weld or braze or whatever broke? I tried to adjust a saw and when I pulled it out the tip stuck in there. I got it out and pushed it back on where it holds but at that point I did not know if I was turning g the screw or not? Need to put a dab of super glue or something on it. i am worried that my weld will be to fat and when I grind it it will be too weak...not a fine welder.

    Get some epoxy and that should hold it. I've used the 2 part mix from Gorilla Glue and it works great!

    I dunno.....just clicking on the link. I am logged into my Prime account, though, so maybe that changes something? It's too late....I already bought it.

    I logged out of my Amazon Prime and clicked on the link and it came up for $10.79 plus $0.71 shipping. LOL. This time the unnecessary 2 day shipping cost me an extra $1.75 I reckon.

    I saw two cheaper than that one like $11.40 and one $11.70 are those sold out? I just put the cheaper one from the link in my cart but if sold out you can't add it I thought?

    Depends on how you search. So eyes amazon pushes you to a pricier option. There is one thats $6.86 and like $4.49 shipping.

    But in my recent items it does not show me viewing that one it shows a $12 one that I did not click..if you see other options you see it.
