So did mine. Top screw broke off flush on both sides.
Class 8.8- that's bad.

That's it. #3 straight slot, I believe. A thin wave
washer is on the throttle shaft, between the switch
and the mounting plate. BTW, the screw you broke is
an M4-.7 x 10mmm. Lowes has them for $.58 for 2 in
socket head caps. Class 12.9- that's real good. Made
in Italy.
