Remove clogs from carburetor jets without drilling or damage. This sharp Indigo™ 22573 blocked orifice cleaning tool clears idle jets, main jets on lawn mowers, motorcycles, small engines.
Small engine mechanics and motorcycle technicians encounter a persistent problem: clogged carburetor jets prevent proper fuel flow, causing hard starting, rough idle, poor throttle response, and complete engine failure. Whether servicing lawn mowers, chainsaws, generators, motorcycles, or vintage carburetors, varnished fuel deposits block the tiny passages in idle jets, main jets, and emulsion tubes. Old gasoline with ethanol content leaves particularly stubborn residue that hardens into blockages smaller than a human hair. Standard cleaning methods, carburetor cleaner spray, ultrasonic cleaning, or compressed air, don't always clear jets completely. Desperate mechanics sometimes resort to drilling jets larger, permanently ruining calibration and requiring expensive carburetor replacement.
This repurposed Indigo™ sharp probe pick features precision-ground curved tips designed specifically for carburetor jet maintenance. The fine points insert into jets ranging from 0.3mm to 2.0mm, mechanically removing varnish and deposits without enlarging jet orifices or damaging brass jet bodies. The curved geometry allows controlled cleaning of angled passages, emulsion tubes, and recessed jets common in multi-barrel carburetors where straight tools cannot reach effectively.
Indigo™ dental tools are made with AISI 410 German surgical grade stainless steel, not "alloy steel" made from rusted cars. We've been selling dental tools on-line since 1998. Ours stay sharp longer & are autoclavable: see Documentation below that confirms chromium & manganese content.
If you need to ream out smaller, larger or just deeper holes than the 22573 dental pick, the Indigo™ 316 grade stainless steel insect pin variety pack may be the answer. It comes with 10 pins for each of the 10 standard sizes. Pin diameters range from 0.25 to 0.65mm. The thinnest ones are finer than acupunture needles!
On a budget & need a disposable price? We also have 10x10 pack of black enamel pins.
Need a greater variety of ultra-sharp tips for your work? Our unique 100 piece insect pin sampler package has 10 pins in 10 thicknesses, all made with grade 316 stainless steel.
