When pulling tiny carbies apart like those I do it over a peice of white paper on a level table, that way I can see anything that falls off clearly. I imagine there would be a small spring on the needle but thats about it.

How did it go? any lock dealing with the flooding?
Before you go pulling the carby apart, I would try with the mixing screws, I have seen these set so ritch they cause the engine to flood when you try to start it.

Sometimes I think a hole in the head would be less painful.

I guess that depends on the agents, my last ones needed a hole in the head, the one i have now is great!
If we have no luck, i may have an alternate carby that will help get this one up and running.

Good luck witrh the inspection, I got sick of the stuck up lot coming in and complaining about stupid things like I had moved a cupboard so I must be hiding a stain on the floor, etc. So I bought my place.
it could well be worth checking out the flywheel, the key is usually moulded on the flywheel side of things.

How did you go with the setting of the jets?
I noticed your mix screws have plastic tops on them, however, if you can get a small flat head into the small holed in the centre of the red/whit caps, you should be able to adjust them that way.
Put them both right it, and then bring them out 1/4 turn at a time, together.
So, screww them fully clockwise (not too much pressure though, they are delecate) then turn the red ant-clockwise 1/4 turn, then the white one, now give it just a couple of pulls, and see how it goes, after a few pulls, if it wont start, bring the 2 screws out another 1/4 turn, and try a few more pulls.
Keep going untill you get something, or till the screws stop.
Occasionally pull out the plug and check for flooding.
Cheers Ty

The red one has lugs on it so it can't turn,also it has no screw driver slot.The white one only turns about half way.I have tried that in various positions and it seems to make very little (if any) difference.

You need a smaller screwdriver, the slots are inside the lugs, on the actual brass screws, down the small holes in the centre of the lugs.

The only way to do that would be to pull the red plastic cap off,as they are fastened onto them.I couldn't see anybody going to that trouble just to make something not work.I'm not sure that is the problem.It as it is getting fuel,and no near as much as it was.It just doesn't seem to want to work the way it should.I'm now sure it's not a spark plug issue as I also tried another known working plug today and still now go.It may be firing just a little bit,as twice when I took the plug out I did get coming out what seem to be exhaust gases.Couldn't be 100% sure of that.

Both general Use, and dis-assembling the carby will lead to needing to adjust the mixing screws, I did not realise you could pull the caps off, so do what bruce has mentioned above, to adjust them.
You would be surprised how mutch of an effect those little guys can have.
Not to mentuon, it's previos owner may have tried adjusting them for a number of reasons, even just "becase i though it would make it better"

Yes I understand that,but what I trying to work is why would I need to.I mean how or why would they be that far out to cause this,as I wrote before after putting carby back together there in now a big difference in the amount of fuel going into the combustion chamber.I now can't see that the carby would be an issue.Before I did the carby it would end up dripping fuel from it,now it doesn't.Also the plug is not wet any more,you can see it is moist where as before when I'd pull it out the plug would dripping with fuel.The issue I have is I have never played with these carby's before and this could be do or die for the carby.If I stuffed it up it could very well be the end of it.I'm just fairly sure it wouldn't be a carby issue now.
