nott sure what needles are in if im honest,jets rmulsions tubes all clear,the airfilter i bought months ago and for the life of me i cant think what the brand was

its running the standard 0.5 needle washer but i have the 1mm to go
in-that was planned once this problem was sorted

Check what needles you have, you might be able to remove a slide cover to check with the carbs still on the engine.

The standard honda air filter has the part number (MR8 etc) moulded into it.
