Missing carb?

My engine sounds like it misses every once in a while. Tried turning the mix screws and no effect. Here are the jets:

Idle 65F8
Main Jets 185
Air Corrector 150
Emulsion Tube F11
Pump Jet 45
Chokes 40
Auxilliary Chokes 5.0

I have been searching to try and find what I put in, but 60F9 or 65F9 is in the Idle. Anyone have any clue on how I can fix it? I wil lbe having it professionably tuned, but my tuner wantsme to grab some jets.

If it's missing you should start with the ignition system before you start messing with jets.
