Float Level

With float installed, invert carburetor assembly so that weight of float holds inlet needle valve closed and make certain hinge pin does not drop out of float hinge (hold down with fulcrum pin spring).

CAUTION: Inlet needle has synthetic rubber tip and excessive closing pressure must not be applied which would compress tip and result in false setting.

Use gauge or "T" scale to measure distance from top edge of fuel bowl to crown of float at center (see Specifications ). To adjust, remove float and fulcrum spring and bend float lever tip as required

CAUTION: (Do not attempt to adjust float in carburetor).

After adjustment, float lip must be perpendicular (within 10°) to top surface of inlet needle.
