I banged and banged with a saftey pin, thinking that hole was the right size....Ugh. Will take out tonight and survey that damage.

The brass wire from a BBQ grill brush ,yanked out of the brush ,is the only wire I have found that was small enough to fit through the tiny hole . The big hole you see on the end of the jet is NOT the jet size . If you don`t have a BBQ grill brush to rob , Walmart sell parts cleaning brushes in sets of 3 ,brass steel fiber ,that look like tooth brushes in the auto battery area .Good Luck! Baby Huey
