[Healeys] Setting fuel level in float bowls

[Bob Spidell <bspidell@comcast.net>]

We're trying to set the fuel level in the float bowls of our BN2. I know the 
procedure--716" drill bit, etc.--but one thing I'm not sure about. The needles 
have small spring 'bumpers' inside that are probably there to damp float 
oscillations. Should the correct float height be set with the springs in the 
needles compressed, or not? I say with the springs uncompressed, since the 
valves seal at that point and the springs should just provide a cushion.;, my 
dad thinks the height should be set with the springs compressed. 

I have Grose Jets in my BJ8 so this is not an issue, but we haven't had much 
luck with the Grose Jets in the BN2. 

TIA, 
Bob
