    Needs to be reasonably accurate, but then a carb isn't the most tight-tolerant of devices.

    Can you supply the jets, or could you sell me a drill bit or 2?

    Ross, could I take you up on that kind offer & pop a couple of jets in the post to you please?

    I'll solder them up before-hand, so literally just needs the drill through each of them - 1 x 1.07mm & 1 x 1.1mm.

    Tried them before - The tolerance is pretty dire to be honest; they're more like 1.0x mm.

    when machining into a FLAT surface the drills are toleranced to +.001 -0.00 but into solder there will be some deviation if you wanted very custom sizes i could put them onto a 4 axis cnc mill and interpolate them out to any size and could tolerance them to microns but i would have to charge for this as it would be a bit of work and ive not done that before so dont kow how well it would work but its certainely something to look at.

    I use such a tool:

    Do not know the name in English.
    Than it is only depends on how accurate can you measure the result.
