As I stated in my PTO Parts thread, I broke the idle jet in my carburetor. I have gathered that the carb is a TSX 241A.
I thought I was using a good screw driver, but that is apparently not the case. I have since learned about hollow ground screw drivers and will be ordering a set.
I soaked the jet in PB Blaster last night and again this morning before I left for work. I plan on hitting it again tomorrow and then attempting to remove with a left hand drill bit. Once I get it out I want to chase the threads with tap.
So, with that being said, what is the thread size for the jet?
I have the comprehensive rebuild kit, so I do have a new jet to replace it with. After this experience, I think I will just leave the other jets alone and just clean them out with some old guitar strings I acquired from a coworker.
Thanks for all the help so far.
