    Call me stupid!
    I tore my carbs apart months ago and hads all the pieces laid out where I knew where they went when I put the carbs back together. In the mean time my son and his friends have been in the shop fixing bikes and cars. The organization of my carb parts is in disarray. They are all separated but not place of assembly. I'm having trouble with the jet placement, which one goes where. The carb exploded diagram in the manual is of no help. This is off a 650 maxum. anyone give a guy some direction?
    Thanks all

    Its been such a busy summer I haven't had a chance to work on it. Now I'm trying to get the old girl out at least once before snow flies.

    Main fuel jet (110) goes into the tall center pillar (screws into the emulsion tube).
    Pilot fuel jet (40) goes into the shorter pillar, towards the front.

    The smaller air jet goes in the middle hole under the diaphragm.
    The larger air jet goes toward the front under the diaphragm.

    Don't forget the brass washers under the fuel mains!
