    Its probably on here somewhere but I can't find it. I've searched the net for just one picture of an XJ700 carb with exactly where the jets are positioned but no luck. I've taken the apart to lean then thoroughly but forgot to mark the exact placing of the jets that end up in the fuel bowl. I marked and positioned correctly the jets under the diaphragm but am now lost for the ones in that end up in the fuel of the fuel bowl. They are #107 or 40 marked on each.
    Any help is greatly appreciated

    I don't have an XJ700.....but I believe the jet in the center of the float bowl is your main jet which would be the #107.....and the other jet is the pilot jet #40

    The vague pictures I have seen to suggest that. Thank you fiveofakind. That's a big help.
