Carbi jets

[THUMPY125]

hey guys. i went to ride my bike today after school but it wouldn't start. It started 2 times in about 40 tries. I pulled the carby off( 26mm mikuni) checked that the float valve was letting in fuel then checked the jets. the main jet was fine but the idle one i'm not too sure. Am i suppose to be able to poke a pin all the way through as i can't. Had full tank of fuel and had plenty of spark and compression.

Take the jets out and goto servo and blow your whole carb out and the jets out with compressed air.

done that blew the whole thing out including jets with the compressor and it started 2nd go but today after school tryed to start it and it didn't start might to the same and invest in a good fuel filter.

Yeah jets are very precisely bored and you can ruin them by shoving any ol' thing down them. Compressed air is best.
