You have to wonder how these needles get broken.-----unless the motor or carburetor suffered from a collision with a floor or other object.

Maybe you mean the idle stop screw at the throttle lever, or maybe the WOT stop screw?

(The one at the top of the carb is the idle mixture screw.)

1031 -- you out there?? Replacement plastic tops can be had, along with idle mix needles. New ones are pricey.
