It was a brand new main needle, but I'll check it. The original one, when I took the carb apart for cleaning, had a small shard of metal coming off the tip. It's like it had sealed itself to the carb after sitting so long, and when I removed it the metal kind of gave.
I think I remember seeing the shard and knocking it off with my finger, so it wouldn't be in the carb - but it's possible there could be a little material that stayed in there through cleaning.
