Are you talking about the main jet, that is between the floats?

Sorry for my lack of knowledge

stewart:
no it take a small strieght screw driver and is down in a hole next to mian has to be blown out with compressed air

tharden:
Cleaning the Carb would be my choice, but I would also check the compression as well.  A two cycle engine can have these same symptoms when low on compression. 

dans89kx500:
What should the cylinder compression be for a 1989 model?
I'm taking out the main pilot jet now.

Dan

stewart:
around 140 psi
