This morning I finally got some time to goof with my carb some more. After soaking it in good ole' WD-40 for 2 hours I was able to push the emulsion tube out with very little effort with a small flat head screwdriver from inside the throat. I then finished cleaning the entire card, changed out the spark plug, reassembled everything...three pulls and it starts and runs like new...no sputter, no miss...it's back to perfect. THANKS TO ALL OF YOU FOR CONTRIBUTING IN THIS THREAD!
Best news this year!!!!
Did you find anything in the tube? Was the end of the tube that protrudes into the venturi area discolored?
Jim
The tube had your typical gluey crust of old hardened fuel clogging almost all the holes. I cleaned all the holes using a mini drill set from harbor freight. No discoloration anywhere though.

If I underestand correctly, the tube you want to remove is piece 12 (NOZZLE, MAIN (Honda Code 6727770) in the carb break down. If true, did you remove the piece 32 (JET SET, PILOT (#35) (Honda Code 1441609)? With piece 32 removed, you can insert a flat screwdriver in the throat of the carb, and using the flat side of the screwdriver, push the piece 12 down.
When looking at the diagram, find the top of 12 (emulsion tube) that tip will protrude into the inside of the venturi/throat of the carb..Remove 31 (jet) with a screwdriver. Just use the flat part of the screw driver and push 12 from the inside of the venturi. ..It will slide out enough to pull it out where 31 (jet) was screwed into.

Try soaking it in a can of "Berrymans Chem dip" can be found at local auto parts store. Or try a pair of needle nose pliers to grab it and rock it about.. Shouldn't have to drill it..

dreamco,
I had trouble getting the emulsion tube out of my carb. I was getting frustrated.
I thought about pushing it down, as has been suggested.
Instead I kept spraying carb cleaner at the tube from the bottom and top. Then sprayed other parts of the carb. Then sprayed the tube again. Repeat. Repeat. Suddenly the tube fell out into the bucket.
So keep spraying. I held the carb above a bucket to catch all the carb cleaner.

You have not answered the question, why do you need to remove the tube?
The "tube" / main nozzle and main jet is what tends to gum up and clog. You can not clear it out effectively unless it is removed from the port.
This is true. Are you convinced it is gummed up?
b
I say this, because I have had mine out a couple of times. I honestly cannot say it was a problem.
Before I spent $100 plus for a new carb, I would assemble it without having removed the tube. If it performed badly, I would open the carb, drill the tube out, and replace it. I think a $15 tube beats a $100 plus carb.
