I got my #38 idle jet in the mail today. Went to put it in and it wouldn't fit. The diameter of the threaded part is too wide. If you look at the picture, the new jet is on top. You can see that the diameter of the threaded part on the new jet is wider. I looked on a bunch of different sites, and they all show the same kind/shape as the new idle jet. I guess it serves me right, I should have pulled it out, measured and compared before buying it. Has anyone else had this problem? How do I find an idle jet that fits? Attachments:

You have to order for the KIND OF CARB YOU HAVE, if it is a Kehin type carb then you need to order kehin type jets, if it is a Mikuni the jets are different. Alleyoop

[replyingto=ramblinman]ramblinman[/replyingto]Thanks for the link ramblinman. That did the trick, I found the one I need. Thank you very much! It's a Keihin carb that I have, and both the stock jet and the wrong one I ordered are for Keihin carbs... just 2 different types.
