Yeah, I ran into old rusted screws when I was sprucing up the carbs on my 82 650. Its worth the minimal investment to go to a hardware store with a couple of the old screws and replace them all with fresh ones, even if they're not that bad. I too used an EZ out bit with great success after stripping out a few of the screw heads.
