U dont have to remove the carb to change the main jet.

Look at the most bottom portion of the carb.

U will see a hex head bolt at the bottom of the bowl. Carefully unscrew it.

Find a socket that fits the jet.

Take that socket and put it in the hole. Feel around for the stock main jet. It's not centered in that hole. Unscrew the jet.

Install the main jet. Make it snug, but don't strip the soft brass threads.

Buy a manual from www.helminc.com to learn how to put the pilot jet in the carb and to do anything and everthing you may want to do to the 400. With that book, anything is possible. It's what I used to construct the monster you can read about below.

Also buy a torque wrench.

Yes get a Helm manual, it's awesome, great pictures and instructions. They shipped mine in about 4 business days. You can do almost anything you want to with a good manual.
