[Honda-C70] '81 carb press fit slow jet depth

 

Hi- I'm John from Wilmington, Delaware and somewhat new to the group (although I've spent the last month studying all of the great resources available here). Since this is my first post I thought I'd briefly introduce myself. I'm a computer scientist with minimal mechanical experience (which recently changed),and about a month ago decided I wanted to drive a vintage looking scooter. By chance I found one for $100 and you guessed it, it was a 1981 c70 passport. I won't go into too many details, but I fell in love during the restoration project and now also sprung on a 1982. So hi, and thanks for all the great resources. My question:

In reference to the discussions about cleaning the press fit slow jet on the stock '81 carb with something like a BBQ brush wire and the actual jet being slightly recessed, could anyone give me an approximate (or precise) length in mm of how deep such a gauge wire should penetrate through the opening on the brass end?

Thanks,
John
