Cam Lam's power jet fits the PHBH 26mm - 30mm, but it might be worth asking them if it can be fitted to the PHBL.

What problem are you trying to cure with the power jet?

Overrich up to a 1/4th throttle, even with a 50 pilot, but perfect past this point. Wonderful on a higway but awful in the city. I guess that some fuel is outgoing through needle and atomiser,so if I fit a leaner atomiser or needle, I'd like to compensate with a powerjet. Thanks for answering knowledge! I've seen the camlam's kit, but is not anounced which carbs fit. I'll ask them.

You need enough room in the throat, before the slide, of the carb to drill and tap the power jet into.

What slide do yo have in?

Thanks for the advice Byron and Rosscla. Soulsurfer,mine is a GT186 too. With a BGM bigbox V2 exhaust and a BGM ignition with a Khepper programmable CDI. I use a standard airbox W/O strangle neck and a BGM metalic air filter. What are your carb settings,please? Thanks again for your replies!
