Been working on my carb for my 1996 GTS and I lost a nut from the carb mount that went under the engine. Been searching for it, trying to push it out with a screwdriver, get my hands in there, get my kids little hands in there and it seems to have gone all the way under.
Would this be dangerous to the moving parts if I leave it in there and go get another one? Looks like there are deeper sections where water is supposed to settle away from the engine, just not sure if it could lodge into something when moving?
Also any tricks to retrieving the loose hardware? Other than being careful with the screws/washers/nuts or putting something down to catch loose hardware when working on the engine?
Seems like its a black hole under the engine mount. Plus magnets dont work
