My new to me 2005 Venture had been sitting for a few months before I bought it and no suprise two of the pilots were blocked, cold headers after start up, I used some Seafoam at 50% mix but it was a long shot and did not clear the pilots. After reading Freebirds guide to carb removal and buying some 17.5 pilot jets I set to work, it was not as bad as I thought and took me about an hour to pull the carbs fit the 17.5 pilots and put it all back together. I set the pms to 2.5 turns out. She started right up with a little choke and did not need more than a minute to warm on choke, then I went for a test ride, ooooh nice and smooth at low revs, next task will be to balance the carbs but that can wait until next weekend. -
What is the advantage to changing to the 17.5 pilots?

Re jetting carbs. In the tech libary the main jets in carb 1 & 2 are different in 3 & 4. The pilot jets it just says to go from jetr 15 to 17.5. The question is are all the pilot jets in the carbs stock with #15 jets or they different, too.
