    Hey guys,
    Need help. I am cleaning my carbs on my 86 700. While spraying thru the slow jet I couldn't blow thru. Second one I could blow thru, 3rd one I couldn't. Not sure which is right.
    Thanks.

    Are you talking about the circuits with the jets in place or the jets them selves? Either way there should be fuel moving through there, so if you can't even blow through it there's a problem.

    I am talking with jet removed and trying to squirt carb cleaner thru them. One I can spray thru and the next 2 I cant. Tried blowing air thru and no go.

    Sorry, thru the jets themselves.

    Going to need something to poke through there. I think someone once said a guitar string would work. But also a set of acetylene torch nozzle cleaners will work if you're careful.
