I was riding my bike and the idle screw fell out of the carb. Does anyone know of a website where I can pick a new screw up?? Thanks.
Idle screw?

Slogger's advice is good if you have a Chinese 2 stroke. You need to tell us which carburetor you have. Also what engine. 2 stroke or 4?
Always a good idea to tell us what you have so we can offer accurate information.
If, as we often assume, it is a Chinese 2 stroke with the standard NT carb, the idle speed screw is just a mechaincal stop that controls how far closed the throttle slide (barrel) will close.
You actually don't want a point to it but a small diameter section that will fit the groove in the side of the throttle barrel. That's assuming the NT carb.
Tell us a little more about what you have so we can give you better direction.
