Needle Seats Removal
Is there a trick to removing the Needle Seats on a Nikki carb 85 12A?
Short story
Just bought this thing
It kept dying when the choke released.
The Floats were way off
I wish someone would tell people to leave the damn things alone.
I trying my hand at rebuilding
But the Needle Seats are winning

Two broken drill bits
soaking in carb cleaner
then the vise grips the screw driver had to much taper.
I was being to careful not to nick-up the seats
Forgot I was throwing them away
I got them out
I think they are 25 yrs old

Yea, my carb was so bad that the small metal clips that hold the needles to the floats literally crumbled when I touched them. Lucky me, I had some layin around from my CV carbs off my crotch rocket.
