If that does not free it - go for it. If it snaps, drill it out, run a tap down through to clean it up. If it does break free from the oil, retap the threads to clean them up.
You got a tough one there. Worse case is forcing it busts the carb boss that holds the jet. Probably not but it is possible. I have had main jets stuck and done the above to free them. Good luck & report back.
Back2-2,
I soaked it with liquid wrench for most of the day and was successful in extracting the jet. It didnt look like it was going to go but I committed to it with a pair of vise grips... all or nothing and it came free...the threads on the needle are stripped and looks like someone might have cross threaded it or over tightened it at some point. Im going to retap the female and get new needle. Im thinking about the
R&D Racing Flex Jet Remote Fuel Screw...what do you think I should replace it with?
Thanks for the input!!
