I just rebuilt my carb but didn't have a float gauge. Do I need one? With the carb upside down the new float was parallel with the gasket surface.

Re: Carb Float Gauge

Assuming it is good enough. But what are you working on?

Re: Carb Float Gauge

On many of the Johnson and Evinrude carbs, using the factory float guage the end of the float opposite the pivot point will be about 1/32" to 1/16" above level when held upside down.
