There are also some tiny holes in the idle system, which Honda refers to as a pilot jet. They are also tiny, and they were under a black plastic plug which was beside the idle mixture screw. There was even a tiny almost microscopic hole in the plastic plug which was stopped up. Took more than just soaaking, the best way to work on it I found was under a magnifier with a light. It ran fine after I finally got it all unstopped.
