Soldering & Drilling Carb Jets

[2door]

This subject comes up a lot and it has been explained often but a picture (video) can sometimes illustrate the process better than words alone.

I posted a video that might help a new member see exactly what is involved with altering the jet orifice size. I hope it's my computer but the youtube vid looks jerky and skips. Let me know if it looks that way to you and I'll either redo it, or buy a new computer.

Tom , the video looks fine to me.

Saves a bunch of money on buying jets that for sure.
I had a hard time buying a good set of drills as all the REAL hobby shops around my way have all disappeared. That was a sad reality.

Tom,
Nice video which I have saved and will refer to when the time comes. I found a little set of bits and the bit vice on ebay for not much money. Thanks!

Tim,
Nice to see your post. I kind of thought you had moved to Florida, but not yet, eh? How goes it?

Good info, I've not looked in the carb I've got on the 66 seems working well when the fuel mix is correct work even better it appears easy enough to make some basic changes if needed ..Thanks for the info..

Very informative. And great for those visual learners like myself. Certainly deserves a sticky.

Excellent Video... This makes it a LOT easier to explain how to do it...
