Having a heck of a time finding a socket that will fit the inlet needle seat. I'm working on a C5 with HL carb, this is the original carb. I've tried several sockets and none will fit or their too thick to reach in that small recess.

It's hard to find a 5/16" socket with thin enough walls. I've turned down a 5/16" nut driver just for the needle seat removal. I've also chucked an extension in a drill with a socket on the end and turned it down with a file.

I thought it was around that size. I think I have a cheap nut driver or socket I can grind down to fit. Thanks!!
