Had all the tool but no screw to replace the one I forgot to tighten ???
And that's why I always bring basic tools with me ? so if it falls apart (which Is likely will cuz my truck is a POS ?) I can fix it. I like that you have all the nice authentic upgrades, ss screws, nice engine and pipe combo, great electrics but y still have a Philips head screw for yer throttle horn !!!! WTH!!!! ?
 
When me an my B-law use to go out an run ,we took everything but the kitchen sink!....

All though ,the gassers have a return spring on the carb. ,if you don't install one on a rotary carb on a nitro ,
a throttle servo horn that pops off ,is a disaster!

I had one that popped off of one of my 50 mph street cars ,it was brand new an just got it ,I had forgot
to put the screw in the the throttle horn when I installed the radio gear.....:banghead:

The car was belt driven ,so not only did it fry the clutch ,it fried the front diff pully an busted an a-arm & shock tower!

From then on ,I always install a return throttle spring on the carb lever ,fail safe units only work if the radio loses contact ,
an if the system has juice!
 
All my outings a take full set of Allen wrenches and a full 1/4 and 3/8 socket set full set screw drivers ?? wheel spanner

What brand Allen wrenches?

I need a new set ,mine are cheapies an ca-ca ,I liked to never got my pull starter off yesterday when it broke!
 
I too have a cheap set 1.5mm to 10mm
Extra long with a ball end :unsure:

Well ,3 screws came out fairly easy ,the fourth one ,NOPE ,there is always that one freckin screw that wont budge!
I think ,those cheapies wear out ,I use to cut a little off of them when they do ,but I want to buy a good set ,may have
too get some from Snap-on or maybe Napa puts out a good China quality!....LOL

Noooooo snapon? one day when I'm big I'll get a set??
 
I've been running Bondhus long T-handle allen wrenches for a long time. They're awesome! I only have a ball end on the 4mm because I need to attack the exhaust nut from an angle. I didn't buy the whole set, just the ones I needed from the local tool liquidator to work on the Baja. Might be another option for ya.

I agree, I have a 4mm t handle by Bondhus not a ball end and it's great, had it for 3 yrs and it never let me down, ? got to get the whole set now ?
