Ok I have a 05 trx 450r and I was replacing the mainjet from a 145 to a 165. Well today I decided to replace it being my day off and oops I kinda broke the jet off inside the needle jet holder that it screws into. No problem tho I took the tube out that it screws into and I just used one of my small easy-outs the get the threaded peice out and well I kinda moved the nut on the needle jet holder a little high than what it should be (I guess) because it is running rich now when I go WOT it stutters then clears out and goes. Where should the nut be? It was close to the bottom so I put it kinda low is there a way to tune it or look inside the carb to see where it should be w/ just trial and error because it is a pain in the you know to pull the carb bowl after every test.
Thanks Jason


PS Ran great before w/ the 145 and I broke the 162 so the 145 is back in it.
