Well after running more seafoam through the bike, installing new spark plugs, trimming the spark plug wires, checking for any vacuum leaks, (all vacuum hose are in great shape), after having checked the alternator, regulator for volts and amps, there is still a hesitation, shutter in the engine, and it happens in the high gears when I am just cruising, but especially in 5th. When I open up the throttle it smooths right out.
So I have decided to rebuild all the carbs.
I am buying this kit: K&L Supply Carburetor Repair Kit 18-2639
I also want to replace the needle jet (16017) the jet-pilot and the main jet.
Here is my question”
There are 2 options for the jet-pilot (92064, 92064a) and 4 for the Main jet (92063 a-d)
Which do I use?
Thanks for the help.

Re: What jet pilot and main jet should I use
All you should have to do is replace the float needle valve and clean all the jets and make sure all the slides work freely you can polish them just be careful not to damage the diaphragm
also remove the plugs from the idle jets and clean them reinstall them 2 turns out.
There is some information in the tech section on carburetors .
I think there is a DVD available somewhere on this site also.
When you have them back on the bike make sure you sync. them

Re: What jet pilot and main jet should I use
The K & L float hangar brackets for the K & L kits have a tendancy to hang up the floats, You need to save the oem ones to use. It would be a good idea to give Carl Leo a call. He can give you the correct way to get your carbs right, He has done many of these for the XII .
