Hi Zimmy,
i am in the process of setting the float level after replacing the original needle and seat assy with a set of Jaycee glass ball float needles.
The question is: should the height of the float (those 5.5 or 4.2 mm like you suggest) be measured with the gasket (the one under the cab cover) in place or without it.
Since I am using a plate to hold the needle valve in its position in the carb and move the float until the tang hits the needle ball, using the gasket or not makes a BIG difference in measured float float height.
Your help is appreciated.
