While I have the fuel bowl torn apart and waiting to dry I thought I would go ahead and shim the FPR. Can I use a BB from a .177 bb gun. I am pretty sure that is what a lot of people did. Anything I need to watch out for?
Thanks,
Craig

Those are good instruction. Note that the cap screw method works the best. That little b-b can be a pain to keep in place.

I agree, plus you can modify the screw to change pressure, the BB you get what you get.

Eventually I'll finish up the adjustable FPR MOD I started working on when doing my WVO conversion. Will post DIY for it if/when I'm happy with it.

The BB is .177", that's alot to me. I only use a .075" shim. Just remember to check your pressure!
