Topic: Needle Jet Removal 627B (500/4)

  (embarrassed)

I've carefully rebuilt my 627B carbs with new o-rings from BryanJ. They're OK and definitely better - but there's still a hesitation when pulling away at 2000-3000 revs.

Now, looking carefully at the diagram in my Haynes manual, I see that there's ANOTHER JET!! (oops)

I've read around TT and BryanJ on removing these and the general consensus seems to be that they are driven out with a wooden drift.  The question is - has anyone ever done this ??

Experience please.

Hey Steve -

I just did this about two weeks ago. I used a
plastic knitting needle I found in an expedition near
the south edge of the garage. A chopstick would work
just as well I'll bet. They push out quite
easily once the main jet is removed of course.
Push them down from the slider end.
