Default cleaning jets?

anyone know how i would clean the jets on my micra? have been told to clean them to make sure they arent blocked causing all the problems, i guess it could be summat blocked causing the problem seeing as it is nearly 19 years old and the engine is almost as filthy as a german porn star. before it died completley i did spray some carb cleaner into the carb which helped a bit but nows its dead i can even get it to a garage.


cheers

DAVE
