Where do I look to see what jets are in the carb?

Don't know what shenanigans the previous owner did.

Thanks.

To clarify...

Remove air cleaner.

Remove bracket that attaches to carb with 3 allen screws, and cylinder heads with 2 breather bolts.

Loosen nut on back of choke knob and remove from bracket.

Pop carb off intake (just a rubber boot).

Turn upside-down. You'll see four screws holding the bowl on. Remove them, remove the bowl.

You'll see the float, and the jets in the middle. Flat blade screwdriver pulls the jets so you can read them. They're stamped with 3 digit numbers for size.

If you need a pic, I can try and scan the page out of the book...
