Default D shaped screw driver

Where can I get a "D" shaped screwdriver? The one that fits the idle mixture screws on a Q-Jet. I checked the Harbor Freight web site, with no luck.

Any help is appreciated. I will be away until Friday, so I will thank any responders when I return.

I have no experience with this product, I just could not help myself from googling.

It's called a "Double D" for what it's worse. Not as fun as the other kind, but useful.

Some of the carb parts vendors (Cliff Ruggles) may also sell non DD replacements.

I was going to guess that this was off a 79. 78 and earlier M4Ms use a hex / slotted head setup.
