I picked up a couple #78's from a hobby shop if you can't find it at a house. Something that deals with planes rc cars etc.

Stopped by Grainger today. Ordered two #78s and 2 #77s. They'll be in tomorrow - about $2.50 apiece.

Worntorn's Amal tuning guide mentions the #78 as the standard, with the option of boring out the jet with a #77 or #76 if necessary. I figured, 'may as well have a couple just in case'

Also picked up a couple of rubber motor mounts with 1/4-20 threads for the oil tank (one of the old ones separated). Same physical size as the original, also about $2.50 apiece.

I'll be clearing the jets tomorrow night.
