Last year I cleaned my carbs the Pinesol way and the carbs worked better so I didn't want to do anything else. But this year I want the engine to run in tip top shape so I am going to dive in and sync the carbs first. Today will start my process by following post in the FAQ section:

Seems straight forward and I should be able to do this by myself. This will save me $75 if all goes well.

After the sync I want to get #20 Pilots jets:

Will these work with my almost non restrictive exhaust flow and modified air filter or should I go with a bigger size? I've been thinking of just drilling out the current pilot jets and if I screw them up then I can get the new ones. Since I brought this up what size drill bit will I need?
If its too plain then MODIFY!
