I perceive a problem with removing the jet from the carburator that I'm going to attempt to rebuild. I had someone play with it and the best I can recall is they said they could not remove the jets because they not break lose. Is there any recomendation on how to slove this problem.

Find or create the perfect fitting screwdriver to remove them. Screwdriver is a whole lot cheaper than a carburetor from CAT.
If you can clean through the jet with a plastic bristle or other object that won't break off in there or wear the opening larger, along with blowing through with air and carburetor cleaner, you may not have to remove them. I was most scared to do much to the one in the bottom of the bowl next to the drain plug.
I limped along with the 212 pony carburetor for a few months after getting it running, and the last time I went into it, the jets which had been stuck screwed right out.
D2-5J's, D6-9U's, D318 and D333 power units, 12E-99E grader, 922B & 944A wheel loaders, D330C generator set, DW20 water tanker and a bunch of Jersey cows to take care of in my spare time:D
