Had an expert in, Looks Like the needle and slide jets are worn, but also the NEEDLE JET Holder, he says the holder has significant wear and its allowing gas to leak through when everything is sealed in the cycle. They are hard to find though...

So I've had an expert in and the needle jets and slide jets were worn, but also the needle jet holders (emulsion tubes). The part with three cross drilled holes on the shaft. He says they are worn and gas is getting through when they should be sealed up. Trouble is these are really hard to find (particularly in Europe), Can I buy this part for say a LTD or a Z1B? Would they fit? Thanks

I very much doubt your emulsion tubes are worn, jet needles may be and needle jets, but i still have my reservations about your mechanics.
here is a link to allens performance parts in the UK, if you know what you need they can supply they are not cheap though.

Would perform clear tube tests to assure correct fuel levels in carbs.

And also clean the pilot circuits.



Good Fortune! :)
