the picture is massive so i wont repost it for you

here is the url: http://locostbuilders.co.uk/upload/8carb.jpg

it is the large brass thing in the middle of the photo which is unscrewed with a flat headed screw driver

sorry about the pic. I'm useless with uploading and stuff.

Ok thanks for the info. Do i just unscrew that and drill the hole bigger?

Thanks

yep, its very stubby once you unscrew it and there is only a tiny amount of metal you will have to remove when drilling it out.

dont use an electric drill as youll end up making a gash in the bore as the metal is so soft!

I did my ZX6R jets with a cordless drill which worked fine.

The jets can be tight to unscrew so use a good, correctly sized screwdriver.

You'll need to play about with the needle height as well [accessed by taking the carb top off].
