Sounds like your pilot circuit is clogged still. Find a parts fiche for the carbs from any Honda dealers website it will tell you exactly what every part is.

I can see daylight through all of the jets, and the carb housing and everything is super clean. There are tiny little holes inside the opening of the carb in front of the slide, do they go straight through or are they just cast in? I honestly can't find anything else to clean because I've done both a number of times now. I'm thinking I should try swapping the carbs and starting to see if that works at all.teazer said:Did you spray through the tiny holes into the bore that the pilot jet discharges from. They are tiny and they block easily

I have Keihin carbs, and I read somewhere that a 98 and a 38 are the way to go. I ordered a rebuild kit that meets the specs for the threads I have so I think it'll be good to go, but if not it was only like 19 bucks so I won't have to take out a loan or anything if I ordered too hastily.teazer said:FYI, 180 main jet in a keihin carb 1.8mm diameter and that will flow 4 x as much fuel as a #90. Or did it have a minkuni jet in that carb?
Go on line or contact your dealer and see if you can get two good new Keihin main jets for that carb. Early and late Honda's use different threads - same diameter but different pitch. I can't remember which pitch the 175 used and what that is compatible with but can check it over the weekend if you need.
teazer said:Cool. One thing I try to do now is to set FUEL level and not FLOAT level. That way, any float problems are obvious and it's what we are actually trying to do when we set the float level.
Doing it "wet" where possible is more accurate.
That's the plan! Hopefully I'll get enough of one out without destroying it that I can take it to the hardware store and get some nice new black hex hardware.advCo said:Get a drill bit that's just a hair bigger than the 6mm bolt shaft, and drill through the head of the screws until they pop off. Take the cover off, and I'll bet the rest of the screw will come out by hand. If not, vice grips.
