Stuck jet on SU

Hey guys,

The jet is stuck on one of round-top '72 SU carbs. The choke moves the jet on the front carb but not the rear. I can't even physically move it up or down. What is the likely cause? Is there a simple fix? I haven't done much work on these carbs but I do understand basically how SU carbs work.

 

Thanks,

Matt

Gum, Varnish, or bending from sideloading.

 

The only way to know is to pull the carb, and clean it till it works. Disassembly will reveal bending.

 

They can stick and operate that way for years till someone finds the issue.
