    I don't remember if that is a 4 or 5 mm screw, take the other one, go to Ace hdw. get that size screw, cut the head off and cut a slot.

    Measured and looks like a 5mm, thanks Ed. Thread looks very fine, wonder if my local Ace will have that.

    It's probably a 5 X .8 mm thread pitch, Ace will have it.

    Didn’t Paul retire? His website looks up to date though.

    Try Belmetric.com

    Or

    Alfa1750 on EBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/290370350583

    He has all the zenith carb parts and ships very quickly from Italy.
