Question 1. What size wrench do I need to remove the plug from the bottom of the carb. I just used a good adjustable but hate doing that.

Question 2. On the bottom of the carb there is a drain tube that has a something or other that looks like you can turn it to drain the bottom of the carb. My 52 year old eyes can't tell what it is. Maybe an allen key? If so what size? If not what the heck is it? My yammy has a phillips screw.

I believe the bowl nut is a 17mm and the tube at the bottom of the crab is the overflow tube. Gas flows through this tube when the float height is not set properly an gas crest the overflow tube inside the carb.

Thanks. I guess the only way to drain the bowl is to remove the nut. I will pick up a 17mm wrench tomorow. Took it off today and there wasn't any dirt in it at all. Clean as a whistle.
