Bogging down from idle to wot sometimes to the point of stalling. A small pilot jet will not fill bowl enough and when you hit wot there will not be enough fuel, ending in a bog/stall.

The pilot jet has nothing to do with the fuel level in the float bowl, that is controlled by the float and the needle and seat.

The pilot is basically a mid-range or intermediate jet that feeds fuel to the venturi before the main jet system starts flowing fuel. A stumble off idle or lazy preformance up to about 1/3 to 1/2 throttle can point to the pilot being the wrong size. Also high CHT temps when the throttle is shut off after WOT points to a too small of a pilot.
