First you need to make another hole in the float. This will enable you
to get the gas out that is in it. If you blow into the hole that you make
then the gas will come out of the original hole. When the float is empty,
if its plastic, use a soldering iron to seal both holes. On a metal unit
use the soldering iron to solder the holes shut. Other units are available,
one is from a Ford Pickup I believe and it is tin.
