Jet screw driver

[ktmoutfront]

I can not find my old school jet removal drivers. I will bet money my younger brother got ahold of them when my tool box was stored at his place. Not the fist tool I have lost that way.

Anyways. They were specifically made for jet swaps. Beefy blade with a smaller rotating blade in the middle that was spring loaded to twist. You pushed that thin blade into the jet, rotated a small amount and the larger blades would engage. The center blade would hold enough rotating pressure on the jet hold the jet onto the tool. It appears they no longer exist.

Has anyone seen one? I looked at all of the ussual places. The ones on Summit and Amazon are junk from the looks of it and they do not hold onto the jet.

My old shaky hands could really use one now. Makes re-jetting the quadrajet, while on the truck, much easier.

You mean like a screw starter only beefer?

I use a straight pick in the center hole to guide and maybe get an 1/8 turn them remove pick and use a big screw driver

I know exactly what you’re referring to. I’ve used one before. I’m looking but haven’t found one yet

Boom. Just like that, there is an option. Mine were beefier, but these will work to run it out and the new one in.

Thanks.

Great tool. There are plastic shaft ones too, those are good if it’s too long- just cut it in half. I’ve got both.

I forgot to update this. That tool is too small for full size main jets.

This is how I do it. I use a straight pick in the jet, to get lined up and started. Then normal correct size screw driver.
Or you could get this
