Jeff,
I have a tool but it doesn't fit right. So I Pull the piston out, make
and adjustment, reinstall the the piston and check operation. A little
less convenient but it works and there are only 4 screws on each carb
that needs to be removed. This technique will work in the absence of
the adjustment tool.
Also, make the same amount of adjustment to each carb each time.
