I've seen posts on here that say the float should be level with the carb when turned upside down....how do you adjust this?

There is a tang that the float needle attaches to. Gently bend this tang slightly to adjust the float.

Re: Question about float adjustment

The correct float adjustment for your carbs is, <br /><br /> Invert carb body the float should be parallel to and a 1/16" above the carb body.
