the main jet is the one on the bottom of the carb bowl. to get to the pilot jet u have to take the carb bowl off and then your'll see the pilot jet. watch how the bowl comes off and look inside and see how the lil plastic thing goes back on, and make sure your acceletator pump is working after u put it back together.

If you remove the drain plug on the bottom of the carb you will see a brass hex shaped jet with a tiny hole in the middle and a white plastic piece around it... that is your main jet. Beside it should be another brass jet which is the pilot. The pilot should be much longer than the main also.

pilot jet controls 1/8 to 1/4 throttle, the main jet controls 3/4 to full.
