Fazer Carburettor Jets Blocked
« on: 18 February 2012, 07:53:03 pm »
Hi There
Can anyone please help me identify the type of jet seen in below image next to blue arrow.  I've spent days trying to clear the jets but the hole is so small I'm finding it nigh on impossible.
  Soaked jets in carb cleaner, meths, boiled in lemon juice and blown out with compressed air but still no joy.  I've only stripped two carbs down so far and I've got the same issue with the same jet both carbs.  The reason I decided to clean the carbs was because cylinder 2 was not firing properly at low to mid rev range.   Oh, I've also tried poking jet hole with copper wire but the wires so thin that its not strong enough to push through them. 

Almost about to give up on them. 

Any advice anyone.. Thanks!

Looks like the pilot jet. If it isn't seized in the body of the carb an ultrasonic cleaning bath might do the trick if you've access to one.

Feck that...; buy new jets .. only a couple of quid...

Go down the page to "Fuel" section... then "Carbrettor main jet" choose your size and away you go..

You will have to ask someone more knowledgeable than me for the main jet size of Fazer 600 though...
