i see your w/cleaner John, well looking back at your posts  i dont actually see any related to c/c  ,

Now either your taking the p**s, that was my first opinion I formed , or you are taking the P**s, that was the 2nd opinion i formed . 
But just to give you the benifit of the doubt,  a good blow often clears, or perhaps fine fuse wire ensuring you dont damadge the orfice.
Now I guess i should inform you that the jets normally do unscrew, in an anti -clock wise direction  this enables you to actually make the job of clearing them a little easier if they dont clear in situ., once you have cleared its really is a very simple case of returning the jets to the wand, inserting from where you removed and screw back in the opposite direction from whence they came , this would be a clock wise direction if  you are finding it a little confusing  ;)

As last post, they do unscrew, also worthde scaling them once you remove from wand.

To unblock the jets........£60 ?

Was this new replacements I wonder?

Check for hair line cracks. I had 1 cracked, wich caused it to spray wonky.

John

Once you get it sorted put an inline filter on the valve end.  Think Ashby’s sell them less fluffing about even with stainless steel (nightmare to clean/prod about)

I would have charge you £40quid and £20quid for the inline and shown you how to do it ;D

Mr B

Is it bit ironic a few wc’s use someone and not happy with but keep going back to them :'(

I do hope you are using them and highly recommend my stair tool it also has got one ;). Will be testing what you gave me in the next few days
