Posted June 28, 200915 yr I am rebuilding my bs34 carbs and i am trying to get the pilot jet and my manual says to use a tapered rod to remove it but i don't understand what they mean by doing that. I would think if you push to hard then you would just push it in harder. If anyone has some suggestions that would be great.
June 28, 200915 yr Never heard that one before. All I have ever seen are a straight slot or are fixed and wont come out. Use a jet cleaning tool and run it thru the hole in the jet while it's in the carb. At least you can still get it clean and you wont chance damaging anything trying to remove it.

Ok That sounds like it a better shot then trying to break it out. Thanks
