The power jet pipe that runs from the float bowl to the bell mouth appears to have a blockage near the top.
I can feel something hard in there.....is this normal?
Don't wanna go digging around dislodging something that should be there.

You sure it's not just a bulge in the tube that hold the pipe on?

There's definitely nothing in the pipe on mine.

Pull it off and try poke something down the tube.

Why does this put me in mind of that film? What was it called?

It might have been 'Alien'

After looking at a mates carb last night it turns out what ever is in the pipe must be normal because his is the same.
I'm not going to poke it out now but I would like to know what it is.
