04 yfz 450, went to rejet and found the pilot jet has been striped or broken on one side of the slot. Besides extracting it what other ideads do you guys have on getting this thing out. Thanks in advance!

If it is a jet, it should have a small hole in the center of it, tap the end of the jet with a hammer and punch lightly to loosen it and then try using an easy out to remove it..................

Thanks Willy,
Was able to get it out finally with an easy out and some heat from a soldering gun. What a PITA!

yep...I have found the jets are really soft and "hand tight" can even be too much! I have broke a few trying to change them on the Fiancées Raptor. This is one reason I am so pleased to have EFI on mine.
