having problems with the air / fuel (pilot) screw

Post by jono »

Ok, I'm having problems with this. I don't see a brass cross hatched screw under the carbs. What I see is the float bowl drain screw, the idle adjust knob, and then a cylindrical post point pointing down, somewhere in the middle of the carb body.

I assumed the cross hatched screw was inside this post, but when I looked at it with a mirror (only way to see it) it looks like a hex head bolt, or rather, the non-business end of a typical main jet.

Am I being thick? Where is that pilot jet screw? The diagram in my manual (s) indicates that it should be inside that cylinder.... Does anybody have a picture of this thing?

Thanks, Jon
