[NSRCA-discussion] OS140RX needle valve extension

[Nat Penton]

Scott
IMO you have one choice. Cut the needle assy off the backplate with the 
Dremel.You will have enough flange left to mount it to the firewall with two 
2-56 bolts.

This provides easy and safe adjustment with a running soft mounted engine, 
also greatly extends the life of the needle assy. If there are any negatives 
I have never found any.                                      Nat
