What I did when it came time to reinstall it, was use allen head 6mm bolts. That allowed me to use an allen wrench with the ball end design. I'll try attaching a pic.

Any tips on how to get that bottom screw out? I have really struggled getting to it. Removed the air filter canister for a little more access but still having trouble.

I was starting to think it was necessary to pull the engine to get to that one screw. Any help or ideas are much appreciated!
