the bowls are a pig to get off, usually the screws chew up before they come loose. as for the plugs you need a very thin wall socket.

get some heat on the screws and hit em with a hammer, make sure the screwdriver is a perfect fit then try again.Don't do what i did use a impact driver as you will damage the carb body!

If you have chewed the screws then what I have done in the past is to use a dremel file to turn a cross head into a flat head screw and then hit it with an impact driver (heat will help also)

You must have hit it too hard
Probably dont need impact driver - if the screwdriver is a snug fit then it will turn - iirc these srews can have wd40 put in from the other end which if left long enough should do the job but that all depends on how much time you got!!
