what clip?

No that's the needle and seat . You need to pull the needle out of the slide. My needle takes a 6mm to pull the needle out of the slide. Push down to unhook the cable . Then use a 6mm to get to the needle.

MadKaw:
oh, your talking about the needle that comes down from the throttle cable? that goes thru the screw off cap on top of the carb? if thats it, its still at my friends house with the bike. I just took the carb off and brought it home to clean.
now what about the 2 screws on the outside of the carb. I know 1 is the air screw and 1 is the idle screw right? the smaller one closer to the bowl is the air screw I'm thinkin, and it was all the way in.
 the bigger one in the middle of the left side, shouldn't that have a spring on it? to hold it in place from the vibrations?

kx666:

Here's a few pages of PWK's and part names and #'s.   
 This will make it easier to understand what the heck "you guys are talking about"  :wink:

MadKaw:
thank you...muy bueno! that helps out tremendously.

the idle screw seams to be on the other side of the carb in the picture than the one I have. and it does look like it has a spring on it. I guess mines missing the spring.
