Bad Voltage Regulator

At this point I think my favorite option would be to use a dremel with a small cut off wheel and slice a big slot across the screw head to get a flat blade to fit the screw.

Either that or use a socket extension and repeated very careful hammer blows to flatten the screw head out a bit then knock a #2 philips multi-bit into the mashed up head and try one more time.

Second option requires great care as you can do alot of damage to the body of the carb. I have personally used
this option numerous times. Usually case screws.

Both options remember to soak the whole problem in wd40.
