Carb cleaning fun

Well its snowing here so I decided to tear into the carb a little. I have everything dissasembled and soaking overnight in carb cleaner.

I unscrewed the (main?) jet, the one that sticks down into the float bowl with the slotted screw. I got that peice out and the jet popped out and Im wondering if it has to go back in a certain way. It is a needle like peice with 3 tiny holes in 2 of the sides and 2 holes on the other side. Does that need to go back in a certain way or do I just stick it back in and put the slotted screw peice back in?

Yes, it snowed, 3 days after I finally get a scooter.

:roll:


I know which way it slides back in, Im wondering if the holes in the side of the needle have to point a certain way.

So it doesnt matter which way the peice is rotated? Just push it in there and put the screw back in?
