Ok, you want to rejet and change the PILOT or Main Jet?!
You do NOT have to remove the carburetor, but we did so for the pictures, ok?
This isn't rocket science. All you have to do is TURN OFF YOUR GAS so you don't get gas flooding the garage!
If you get a fire you can't ride your quad!
So put a rag under the carb to soak up gas that WILL SPILL OUT of the carb.
Loosen the hex nuts that hold the carb to the air filter box, and to the motor, and rotate the carb so the bottom is toward you.
You can remove the hex nut on the bottom releasing a few tablespoons of gas, and then you can change the jets.
Unscrew the cover SCREW on the bottom, unscrew the jet and replace the jets you need to replace!
THATS IT!
Very easy.
Replace the cover after making sure there is no dirt on it.
We took our carb OFF the quad so we could get pictures...
YOU DONT HAVE TO take off the float bowl to get at the main jet and Pilot jet!
THIS IS THE BOTTOM OF THE CARB, ours is black, yours is probably silver, like aluminum.

There is the HEX NUT!
Ok, get a wrench! This is easy...

AH! The hex nut is off!
And you see TWO JETS INSIDE!
The one on top inside tucked away is the pilot jet.
The bigger one that sticks out is the main jet.
See? The bigger one is the main jet.
The smaller one up inside is the pilot jet.
