I had the same issue, first time I didn't even clean them.

Second time i was determined.

I don't think mine were taken out since 1987 because they had corrosion on them...

I used a screwdriver i had for decades, before i was born probably, had to file down the sides, but finally got it.

If you live in USA you should have no problem, just take your carb into the store and look for a screw driver that will take out that pilot. Try not to use something with a small blade (for electronics) as you can strip the head of the pilot.
