Idle Adjustment Screw on Ensign Regulator

Hugh McKinney · Aug 20, 2013

This is an SOS for help on my almost-ready Ensign regulator/vaporizor on my 450 LP. I got the whole thing rebuilt, clean and ready to re-install, and I removed the idle circuit screw (the one with the spring around it) to clean it, and managed to drop it somewheres that I have combed the "haystack" but no "needle valve", ie, it is LOST. I have also combed the internet looking for a bolt that I can machine into a replacement, but the size is unusual--9/32 inch. Smaller than 5/16", larger than 1/4". Does anybody have one for sale or at least that can send some detailed pics with micrometer readings so I can make one up? Sign me, Tired of Looking in the Grass of My Backyard for My Needle Valve. Thanks, Hugh

Might it have the same dimensions (or at least the same diameter and thread) as one used for a similar purpose in some gasoline carb or other? Seems likely that they would have bought the part.

I may be able to help if it is a Model R Ensign. 660-542-2117

Thanks, Unforgiven. If you think you do, could you send me an email? My email is open, or you can call me at 318-465-0797. Thanks again, Hugh
