Mikuni 34 - missing pilot jet

I acquired a jd300 1977 and it turns out to have a mikuni with “34-370” stamped on it. It is a 34mm. When I took the carb apart the pilot jet was missing and the main jet has no markings on it.

Any advice on what to jet this thing at? For main and pilot? Thanks!

1977 JD300 Restoration and Parts

Hi. First post. A friend of mine gave me a 1977 JD 300. I am starting to restore her. I got the motor out and finally got the track off (pain in the butt). Stripped her down. Can any of you help me find some parts? - O-Ring for brake/drive sprocket (U17502) - Bearings (x2) for drive shaft (jd8555) -...
