Default Replacing o rings

Looking for some opinions on how to replace o rings on the carb needles. Any input?

They sell replacements, just buy the ones for your motor, unscrew your needles all the way out and replace the o-rings. Might as well clean out the entire carb body while you have all the needles out. Here is link to your B5 parts

I have used this brass tool, but I can never find it when I need it lol
be sure to lube it a bit first.

I have several different ends off ball point pens that work pretty good along with a little silicone grease...
