Float valves are new on stock carbs

[thomas h.]

But they still leak I have to get towed around the bock to start because the over flow tubes are blocked. They are brand new from the dealer. Any suggestions on making them seal?

 

Ps I will unblock the overflow

Did you install new seats also? If not try cleaning the seats with tooth paste on a Q-tip then clean that out. Got that tip from another forum and can't beleive the amount of crap that comes out.

Did you set float level?

[thomas h.]

Yes new seat with the valves.

 

Set the float at 21 mm. I read the directions about setting them.

 

I good you tube video would help.

 

I guess it's time For a shop manual and hope for a good picture of the measuring points.

 

Good idea with the tooth paste.

just hold it upside down and set it so the float is level JUST as the needle contacts the seat. should get you close.
