So the right carb was leaking, big time. Order new float valve and adjusted float per the book.
Still leaking. Adjusted float some more. Got leak stopped. But...no gas getting to right cylinder.

Called my master carburetor mechanic who had a super idea. Why not take the bowl off the other
carburetor and measure how the float is hanging. Big difference. Adjusted right float to match left
float geometry, reassembled everything, and voila - no leak and both cylinders firing.

Thanks Tim!

Of course Harry will havewn a negative comment, but that's to be expected.


Don't mind Fat Harry. He's just mad because you wouldn't ride in
his boat.

So you set the angle of the dangle. How does that affect the level
of the upside down float?


My only interest in Herring's messing around with gasoline is in a kaboom.
