Default Idle jet on Brosol 30/31?

Hi,

Another Brosol 30/31 question! I didn't get any literature with my carb and
I was wondering which jet is the idle jet - is it the one nearest to the
bowl?

TIA,

--Steve

Its up high, 8mm brass hex head, near the electric choke element,
marked with a "50", "55", or sometimes "955". The center looks
like it's plugged with a shiny ball bearing or a brass plug.

Depending on the engine application, you will normally find a
50 or 55.

Thanks for that Raymond. I noticed the jet on top (vertically fitted) right
next to the intake was blocked so I replaced it with an identical one from
the Solex, I'm assuming it should have a hole on the top :-)
