Posted March 25, 201113 yr Hello all, I'm looking for the lil screw-in jet on the left side on the back of the carb. I think its different than the 'pilot jet' which is inside the carb.... This is called the 'air pilot jet'. I think the values on that hole are 170 when i looked at it (but on backup carb i have I think i saw 155), not sure whats stock. I think the 'air pilot jet' is #52 here (vs #12 for the 'pilot jet'): http://www.boats.net/parts/search/Yamaha/Motorcycle/1978/XS400E/CARBURETOR/parts.html I think my is a bit stripped so i was looking to replace. MikesXS has 'pilot jets' but i didnt see 'air pilot jets' Thanks!, -Arian
