Hold
the carburetor with its main bore in a vertical
position, so the float arm tang will just close the float
valve, without compressing the spring loaded plunger in
the end of the valve. Measure float height with a float level
gauge.
Float height (distance between the carburetor body and
the opposite
edge of the float) should
be 22.5mm
(0.886 in.) when the float valve just closes.
If adjustment is needed, carefully bend the float arm tang
toward or away from the float valve until the specified
float height is obtained. Replace any damaged or leaking
float.
