OK, got the jets out. The 76 carbs (which is what is on it now) have the following:

115
17.5

the 79 accelerator pump carbs have the following:

110
15

The larger numbers were on the end of the big jet in the center where the needle goes down into. I have not seen where the "clip" is located on the needle either.
The smaller numbers are on the side of a little jet beside the bigger center jet.

Sorry, I don't know which ones are which. I am a dummy when it comes to carbs.

Should there be o-rings on the Main Jet's?
Thanks

The 76 KZ900 VM26s didn't have orings on the main jet holder tubes (emulsion tubes) as I recall.

I saw that the throttle range where I am having the problem involves the "needle jet, pilot jet, and pilot tube". How can I check those things, or should I change the needle height?

Thanks,

My carbs are mikuni and the O.D. of the inlet is 1.340" which convertes to 34mm.
If this helps anything
