Hey all, I recently acquired a 97 model Seca II, and it has not been serviced properly in decades. In going through all of the previous owner's work, I found a seized pilot jet broken in the 4th carb. I tried to get it out with progressively less gentle methods, and now I am at the point of having drilled through the jet and have veeery little brass left, with some damage to the threads as well. Is there any salvaging this, or should I be looking for a new carb?
