There are two idle jets on the Weber 32/36 carburetors – a primary and secondary, one on each side. Here’s how to remove them for cleaning as part of a rebuild process. Their locations are circled below, and they undo with a flathead screwdriver – make sure it fits well:


Each one is likely to be a different size so take note of which one came from where.


You will note that the O-ring sits just beneath the head of the screw, probably hardened and flattened if the carbs haven’t been rebuilt for a while. The O-rings are part number 41565.002. You can see the size of the jet stamped into the side:
