I was recommended to replace the whole with grose jet (see middle section of
last Moss edition (green special deals part)). Any one has done this yet?

Check or replace your needle valve in the float chamber.

Subject: SU Carb -- Float Leaking
The rear float of my HS2's is leaking on occasion. Actually, leaking is
an understatement. It's pumping out significant quantities of gas --
ooops -- petrol.
If I take the lid off and fiddle with the gasket and put the lid back
on, it seems to dry up for awhile, but it starts dumping again
eventually. Or, if I remove the gas line and reconnect it, it sometimes
goes away for awhile.
Since I'm not really fixing anything, and since it _looks_ like the gas
is actually coming out of the top (underneath the gas line), I'm
starting to think there must be something else wrong.
Is there some kind of overflow? What causes it to need to overflow? Or
is my gasket technique that bad?
Help?
