is this supposed to be removed? 82 kz750 spectre was created by warogue
I am tearing down the carbs and have this plastic plug that twists but doesn't seem to want to come out. I'm figuring this needs to come out before soaking the carbs. 82 kz750 spectre
Thanks

I think there may be another jet under that plug.

Don't quote me on this, but I'd guess that the cap is supposed to be pulled out. It may have an o-ring on it that's most likely hardened. Maybe shoot some silicone spray or sumthin' on it.

warogue, as mentioned check the Kawasaki site for all the diagrams and part descriptions for your bike here:
'82 KZ750-N1 Spectre
As you can see, the cap, O-ring and hidden jet are described as follows:
Ref No
Part No
Description
11012
11012-1128
CAP, POLYESTER
92055B
92055-1088
"O" RING
92064
92064-1001
PILOT JET, #35
Based on this, looks as if all you have to do is pull the Polyester Cap a little harder to over come the O-ring and expose the Pilot jet then you'll be good-to-go.
Best of success.
PS
Could you add your year, model and location to your signature to get the best responses... and it's considered real friendly too. And I find it cool to know were y'all come from.

Thanks for the Info... I have sprayed it and waiting a bit for it to seep through. I'll let you know how it goes.

That is a plug w/ o-ring to plug the slow jet well. The #35 slow jet is beneath that plug. It draws gas from a cross passage from the main jet well. The plug needs to come out and the pilot jet needs to be removed and cleaned. It can't be replaced as replacments are no longer available.
