Yes, a clogged pilot jet can cause backfiring in an engine. When the pilot jet is obstructed, it restricts the flow of fuel during low-speed operation, leading to a lean fuel mixture. This can result in incomplete combustion, causing backfires in the exhaust system as unburned fuel ignites. Proper maintenance and cleaning of the carburetor are essential to prevent this issue.

How do you determine if a jet is clogged in a jet pump?

It's a very common problem and can only be fixed by removing and cleaning the jet. -If it's a single pipe system this may also be a sticky foot valve at bottom of pipe.


What are the effects of gravity on the pilot of a fast jet plane?

Gravity has the same effect on a pilot as any other object. If a plane is flying very fast, the gravity is still pulling the aircraft and the pilot down towards the earth. If the plane performs maneuvers, then the gravity may seem negligible but it still is pulling down. As objects goes higher away from the earth, the pull of the gravitional forces decreases. But a change in the gravitional force would not be noticeable until you get into space---where a jet can not fly.


You want to convert a masterbuilt turkey fryer from propane to natural gas what is the recommended procedure?

Practically speaking, contact the manufacturer for a conversion kit. The natural gas jet has approximately 141% diameter, and 200% area at half the pressure (4.5WC -v- 11WC). Measuring the existing jet's diameter, and drilling it to the correct oversize is unrealistic unless you have access to a machine shop. If the device has a pilot jet, even a machine shop is unlikely to have sub-millimeter drill bits. Most manufacturers do have kits. Good luck.

What will cause a 2005 TTR-90 to not idle even when the idle speed is turned up?

Possibly a clogged pilot jet. I took the bowl off the carb of my sons TTR 90 and found it to be clogged. They are extremely tiny on these bikes and can clog easily. Take the 4 screws out of the bottom of the carb and you will see two jets. One is the main jet and the other (smaller diameter and longer is the pilot jet). unscrew it with a flat head screw driver and see if you can see through it in the light. Again (the hole in this jet is TINY so if you see light it is probably good. If not try carb cleaner and compressed air to blow the trash out.
