Make sure whatever hose you used is rated for submersion in gasoline or you'll be finding chunks of it in your jets.

Thats exactly what i been waiting to hear! Why would they plug that hole with METAL plugs. So now i have to drill them out. I did the same thing, soaking and blowing the jets out with an airbrush. The are squeaky clean, i checked with magnifier. The bike starts and runs but wont idle. It wont take full throttle either.

The jets get seated all the way tight.

The A/F screws are adjustments that you seat and turn out 2.5 turns. These are not jets. They are external to the bowl, and many times covered by metal plugs you have to drill out.

Buy new rubber stoppers for the pilot jets. If you don't get it exactly right, or accidently partially stop up the cross over fuel feed... it will never run right and be a pain to get back apart to fix. They are not that expensive.

As for the cap, you need accees and use of that port for syncing the carbs. Fix the cap/replace the cap. But make sure you can use that port.

Overall, if you have not removed the A/F screws as part of your cleaning, it's not complete yet.

Thanks, i think that may answer all my questions about where the A/F (air+fuel) screws are.

To make the EPA happy. So you just can't go messing with the fuel mixture.
