Refit with light tap from soft hammer.

EDIT

You can get replacements from Sirius Consolodated in canada along with the O rings and washers for the mixture screws but their website is a nightmare to navigate

I pulled the ones out of my PD50’s by heating carb body with a hot air gun. Wrapped a pice of rubber tube around the jet and it pulled out pretty easy.

deltarider:
A few pics that may help.

Oddjob:
I did think you pulled them out TBH BUT I wasn't about to say grip them with pliers etc as it sounded a little brutal to me and likely to mark the outer part.

Glad to see my memory was right about the air screws, exactly as I remembered them, not bad for 40 odd years ago.
