Good point.  I pulled the carbs for about the 4th time today to check the f=
loat levels.  On previous rebuilds, I found that making the mold lines para=
llel to the bottom edge would make the lowest point between 16 & 17 mm. Wha=
t I learned today is that everything on the lower level of the floats can b=
e adjusted to be between 16 & 17 mm. When all of the bottom surface is betw=
een 15 & 16, the mold line isn't parallel any more. Thanks Peter!

< I adjusted the new float to fully cl  ose the  valve when the mold line o=
f the float was parallel with the horizontal edge of the carb where the fue=
l reservoir attaches.

What?  The correct float adjustment is 16-17mm between the gasket face on t=
he carb body to the highest point of each float with the carb inverted.
