Hey all,

I'm planning on replacing stock mixture screw on my 08 with adjustable one. Can I just unscrew the stock screw all the way and replace it with new adjustable one?  I looked at Patmans carb diagram and it seems that there's spring on it... is there anything I should know before I proceed?

I also noticed that the hose going from the radiator to the coolant overflow reservoir has a crack in it. Do you guys know of any cheap replacement for it? I checked local auto stores, but didn't find anything useful...

thanks

Yes you can simply unscrew the stock screw and replace it with the new part.  Be sure to put the spring on the new screw.
The hose going from the radiator to the overflow bottle is nothing more than basic rubber tubing that can be bought at any hardware or auto parts store.  take the tube with you to match the diameter and length.
