picture of inside my carbs, i need clarification please

, so if i read the book right....the tube to the right is the starter jet and can be removed as stated in the cyler manual page 211 figure 21 item b.
If that's correct......all 4 are not coming out....any suggestions
Thanks in advance
Scott

 

You don't need to remove this, its a pressed in piece. Best you can do is pass some wire through it and use carb-cleaner and air. Thats it! Get a proper manual, clymers sux btw.

 

Thanks, will do

 

Like he ^^^ sez, don't attempt to remove. If you can blow air through the tube and hear it emerge from the choke plunger hole, tube is clear and AOK.

 

The tubes are plugged solid. No air or cleaner getting through...i was thinking of using a very tiny drill bit to chew through the gunk but unfortunately i am not sure if it is a straight run, so for now i keep soaking in cleaner and try to push through with a wire....
Thanks for the response Squirrelman

 

I/t IS a straight run. Try the drill if soaking or wire doesn't clear them.

 

BBQing steaks right now, I'll drill it out after supper.

 

Drilled out the gunk, cleaned and now rebuilding the carbs...will update and hopefulyy it starts tonight.

 

gee, hopefully its a happy ending, run it up to red line when it warms up and give us a full report.

 

what size is your drill bit and how far did you stick it in? An electric guitar string, e.g. 15, should push through almost 2 inches if it is cleared out.

 

The drill bit was extremely tiny, wire really didnt have any effect. The bit only drilled a very small distance...best guess a mm...or less...afterwards the wire went right through without any problems as well as the cleaner/spray.
