The pilot is STILL plugged. Yeah the problem with the unplugged bystarter is you can not adjust the carb properly.

OK is there a blown up pic of where exactly the pilot is?
I will go at it with everything I got once I can identify it...

Mmk I just ripped it off the bike again.
Tried compressed air, carb clean, and small wire down the pilot.
No pin * of light.
Soaking in the can of carb dip again...

OK no luck. I looked at my FUBAR carb and I can see there are supposed to be holes in that "pin * of light" tube if you look into the air mix screw hole. Those aren't there (well kinda, I can see one but can't unclog it) on my "good" carb.

So I am at the point where I wanna just but a good carb body (or entire thing) for an '85 NB50M if anyone has one for grabs.

Lemme know.
