Just seeing what the consensus is.. Has anyone performed the jet mod on the M14 as described in this attachment? If so what are your results? Any concerns?
Thanks in advance.

Although I have used this "fix" on several M14 carburetors, Termikas has found an even better solution. The problem has always been the accelerator pump jet diameter being too large, including even the smallest jet which is .9 mm. What Termikas has found out (and I have done this on my engine) is to remove the jet in the accelerator pump at the TOP of the chamber just above the one shown in .pdf file pictures. See attached. The jet at the top is always .6 mm and it seems that placing the larger jet at the top of the accelerator pump does not have any negative operational results. It does remove the hesitation and the accelerator pump remains in full operation.

Yes.
Did this mod on my former SU-29 and my current Yak 55M. Does a great
deal to reduce "stumbling" if power needs to be abruptly increased, and
seems to reduce loading up while taxiing also, although that is much
less pronounced.
I've been very happy with this mod.

When I got my engine new direct from Aerostar, it stumbled badly when advancing the throttle quickly. Scare the popo out me sometimes.
The engine came with a whole selection of jets as part of the parts kit you get with a new engine. I put in the smallest one I could fine. I really don't know the size. The engine stopped its stumbling and has been fine now for 1,500 plus hours.
I've heard of both the plugging and using the .6 mm jet. From all accounts, both seem to work OK.

The difference between plugging and swapping the two jets is, by swapping the two jets the accelerator pump is not degraded or disabled. Personally, I think it is a better solution even though for 7 years I had been running mine with the lower jet (1.0 mm in mine) plugged.

I find it odd that owners/pilots should do this sort of crude modification when they clearly have no idea what is the purpose of that jet.
This jet is part of the acceleration pump, which, when the throttle is opened allows a certain amount of extra fuel to be pumped into the carburettor.
The reason that many M14P engines hesitate when the throttle is opened is simply that this jet is too rich and is putting in too much fuel.
This jet is designed to be adjustable, and five different jets are made varying from 0.9 to 1.4mm. Even the 0.9 can be too large with some engines, in which case one can fill the jet with solder, and drill out a smaller hole.
Note that, with the jet blocked, you are also likely to get a stumble, but in this case through too weak a mixture.
The best way of assessing which jet that you need, is to open the throttle when the engine is running on the ground, to see if it does stumble, and if there is obvious black smoke denoting over-richness. If so, then go to a small jet.
Also, few owners change compensating jets. Engines when new are usually set up rich, and again there is a range (I think 1.2 - 2.1mm), and the right jet is very important to control the cylinder temperatures and also fuel consumption.
