Good To Know

Q: Can a bad float cause fuel to overflow? A: A saturated or sticking carburetor float can let fuel overflow past the needle valve, causing rich running or flooding. Replacing it helps correct that condition.

Q: How many floats should I order? A: Count your carburetors and order one float per carb unless your parts diagram shows a dual-float design. Verify against your model before purchasing.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
