If the float is sealed by the surface coating why cann't we recoat it with the same stuff?Some kind of spray or dip. As I remember it someone said it isn't so much the gasoline that penatrates as the octane boosters. and I have no idea of how log a time we are talking about.
I got the 5/16" SS tubing all cut and bent . I cut the cast vent stacks down .ended up drilling with (O) drill bit . fits snug . Last hole the bit caught picked up the carb body and bent the bit. I tried to straighten and it broke. I'm now looking to buy a new (O) bit Monday . I decieded to go with a one peice tube bent out to clear the accelerater squirter access. Then the Craftsman moto tool gave up and I had to buy a cheapy tubing bender from Harbor Freight. The second bend to kit it around the squirter close to thfirst bend downward was the hardest.
