Brass is soft so apply plenty of downward pressure on the jet when unscrewing it. then take a wire and pull one of the single metal wires out the center of it maybe 6 inches long. run that through any and all holes you can find blasting it with carb cleaner in between the process of running the wire through. then use compressed are from an air compressor not like a computer keyboard cleaner kind, preferably one with a rubber tip, hold it up to the hole and blast air through all jets and holes trying to force as much of the air to go only though the jet or hole as possible. Repeat all of those steps till there is no longer any particles or darker goo coming out there will be some in the jets and some in the throat of the carb. Also remove the tank and literally flush it out and inspect the insides for any rust deposits or dirt. flush out your WHOLE fuel system as well. don't allow dirt and debris to be pushed back into the carb and jets you just worked so hard to clean. use only 100% real gas no ethyenal as it deteriorates much faster and many older small engines rubber and plastic components were not ment for it. A fresh hot spark plug never hurt anything either. make sure that all of the butterfly's are free to move and hooked up correctly as well.  worked as a small engine mechanic for a few years, Hope this helped.</p></blockquote><p></p>
