silly newb, you took the main jet out, the threaded hole is the needle jet. not easy to take out, generally, I leave it in.
Quote:2 - the float bowl pin won't come out. I halve tried tapping it with a driver on the end and pliers on the head end. Still can't get that out. So I can't check out the valve and pin inside.
becareful, those posts will snap off.
support and tap with a pin punch.

brass is soft, doesn't take much to chew up the slot like that. if it was driven down too hard, it will stick, have a light touch when turning it closed.
