For the Honda carbs, the jet is not in the bolt that holds the bowl. Instead, the jet is screwed into the center of the carb (after the bowl is removed). If turn the carb over and look in the center, you will see a slotted brass jet. Use a small slotted screwdriver to remove it. Just clean that and it will run like it should- no more choking it to run.
