I love this forum.
I have recently come into possession of this beautiful motor. I guess my question is more of a carburetor question rather than one relating to the motor specifically. I'm retuning the carb and I have a kit coming but it did not come with a float. The float in the motor right now seems to be in alright condition, it still floats but it's varnished and pitted a decent bit. How important is it that I should purchase a new float? And more importantly, I haven't been able to find a float specific to this motor, the only Johnson specific float I've found on this website (and anywhere really) is this one and I'm pretty sure it's for bigger motors. Will this float fit? Do I need to purchase a different kit with a float? Do I need a new float at all? Does anyone want to share my mac and cheese?
Thanks for the help in advance all. Happy motoring.
