Striped rear pilot jet

Post by Quentina875 »

Started an overhaul on the bike after if sat for 4 years. Lots of carb cleaner and brush work. Got it running but rear carb won't run plus half throttle. Thinking clogged pilot jet. Finally got a wire through it last night and going to try again this afternoon to see if it fires. Side note, I've almost destroyed the head of the jet since it was seized in. Any suggestions on removal after I jacked it up?

Secondly. I bought a carb rebuild kit. Installed the float valves and seats but over got two extra o rings for each carb. Any idea where they go?

Thanks in advance

Adam

Won't run under half throttle. No firing at idle.

Sorry, typo

The O rings are probably for the float needle tube,

There's an o ring on the starter plunger on the rear carb of the 1400.
