Carb Jet Question

This is a picture of one of my carbs off of my 1975 Evinrude 115 HP outboard. The red arrows are pointing to the 2 jets in question. These jets are supposed to be able to come out correct ?? Unscrew ?? I'm in the process of cleaning both carbs and I want to get these out. Unfortunately they won't budge. I mangled the crap out of the ones from the other carb. I sure hope they can be replaced?? Any advice or ideas will be appreciated !

Thanks !

Those never need to come out.----And they are not jets at all.----Find the jets inside the carburetor BOWL.----Yes they are way in there behind that drain plug.
 
If you just mangled up the top where it looks like you tried to use a screwdriver to get them out, I'd take some very fine sandpaper and just clean them up and you should be good. I've attached a link to a blown up diagram of your carbs. I'd order carb kits and be sure to remove plug #2 to clean out all of the small passages beneath that plug. The carb kit will come with a replacement plug. And #33 is your high speed jet (like racerone said) and #40 is your low speed jet. The jets come out, but there's a special screwdriver that is pretty blunt on the end. Amazon has them, but I've used an angle grinder to modify a larger screwdriver to work well. Just be careful and take your time.
 
Thanks everyone. Ya, I boogered up those things pretty bad. I will start looking for a carb body. I have a schematic of the carbs. I was wondering why it didn't show the emulsion tubes.... Duh ! I just wish those things didn't have slots in the top that look like they are for a screwdriver. My bad but a learning experience.

Thanks !
 
Not to be argumentative, but I'm pretty sure that I've removed those on some older outboards. But yes, I can't think of any reason why they would ever need to be replaced.
 
I also may have a set of carbs, will break them apart to help you. Here is one body marked 1 3/16 but inside the emulsion tubes there is also a smaller tube.
