Wear protective goggles and use a lot of carb spray.
This is for manual slide with side-located pilot air screw.

Hey Patton,
I'm actually going to be doing the above procedure on my 900's VM26's. The manual doesn't give a setting for the air screw other than to line up the screw notch with the notch on the case (which none of mine are). I was going to screw them all in to figure out how far out each were set, but if you know a good start setting for the air needles I'd appreciate hearing it.
Thanks (sorry to highjack post)
