Wait pulley puller? What all exactly are u needing to replace? I thought u where just doing a top end replacement? Jetting the carb is simple as removing a screw and putting a different one on.... However i am almost sure you have a carb like mine that don't come with screws but rather rivets or headless screws... Youtube on how to change jets on a gy6 carb.... Now to get into the carb, use a dremel or a hacksaw and carefully cut a deep slot on the top of those rivet like things....make sure you get in deep as they are on there a bit tight. Use a flat screw driver and screw those things off, u can replace them with 4mm screws
