Just wondering if anyone happens to know the size of screw in the clamps that hold the carbs in the inlet rubbers?

I have had a look around the forum but can't seem to find the info anywhere..

The screw heads are looking a little worse for wear and the clamps are pricey, so I was hoping to replace just the screws if possible.

Cheers in advance.

I did the same a while back - used allen heads - with "ball end" allen wrenches made access easy.

I THINK they are M4-.70, but may be M5-.80. Will have to check when I get home

I used M4-.7 x 25, I have about 30 more left from the free sample I got from Fastenal.
