Missing pilot jet

G'day Stu.
That looks like a concentric needle with the 3 rings at the top and for a two stroke. https://tinyurl.com/mr463m8b
What carb do you have? You should have a monobloc 389/18

Carb in earlier pic is 626 Concentric musky.
Bike presumably has run in the past, it looks well-used anyway, so I'd stick the clip in the middle of the three for starters - using the older needle if you can find it again.

However, sounds as if the #1 thing is to get the ignition timing close to where it needs to be for a kick off  . . .

Could we change the title of this thread to Jet Pilot Missing in Action 🙏

G'day Stu.
Sorry M8 it's a Mk1 concentric. From memory (not good these days) it should have 5 lip positions and two rings at top.
I "used to have" lots of them. I'll pull the one out of the plunger carb later.

If I can find out exactly what to get, I'll buy and send to my mum, she's coming over in a couple of weeks, unless I can find the old one. I know I haven't seen it since I got the bike or long after though. Mum lands 28th March so I can wait until then.

Hi guys, just an update.
With Swarfy' s help I found the camshaft cog to be almost 180 degrees out,I had set to the wrong mark. Spun it around and managed to get a few seconds of firing with engine start. It's not firing from the carb yet so ill work on that. The plugs, caps and even carb O ring are over 20 years old so I have new ones coming month end with my mum from UK. I'll keep adjusting the valves to get them exact, fix the wiring etc.
Thanks for your help guys, cheers
