    About pilot jets (Holes)

    In my carbs BS32ss,My pilot jets have not any tiny sideholes,but some others carbs have it. What does that means?

    Some BS32's had holes in the pilot jets, some did not. I'm not sure why that is.

      it's been asked before but the only conclusion was that it doesn't really matter. perhaps the holes on the side disipate the gas more easily?

      up the irons!

        I have also heard that if your carb came with jets that had holes in the sides, you can not use jets without holes, and vice versa.
        Again, not sure why.

          .

          i am not sure why, or why not.
          i am for sure that it DOES make a differance.
          a person needs to use what style of jet that came in the carbs as per OEM.

            My carbs came non-holed pilot jets. I run with some with holes. I do believe it mixes more air into the mixture pilot circuit. I'd say use all holes or all non-holes. The amount of metered fuel will be the same out of the bottom of the jet.
