Wow those are really bad ! I can't wait to see the results !
you might use a heat gun to heat the carb base to get the jets out ! I've snapped off pilot jets before in carbs like that !!!! good luck ! Bob......

were in such poor condition, achieving throttle plate/shaft motion took awhile. Both carbs were frozen solid. Note "were". Jets out/back in after my normal treatment. Getting there, need 1 more day to complete them.

recently did carbs for a certain EX500 owner, he reinstalled them yesterday, became anxious to hear it start/run......however, without the OEM air filter.
He reported the bike started/idled ok, but upon throttle, puked at 1/4 to 1/3 throttle. Answering his text, I made him aware that the filter supplies somewhat of a restriction, which the carbs require by design. I suggested he give it up till he had the "missing piece" installed. Today he texted, reporting it "passed with flying colors". So I offer y'all.....keep in mind the difficulties running without airbox or filter, or testing carbs without same.

insides as well, ty BK
Upon opening, found the decel valve diaphragm was firmly attached to body, ZERO movement. And both floats offered vastly differing heights. Both issues corrected, should be fine runners now.
