Ah Damn! I didn't measure to the top of the bulb. So if I am low say ~17mm, do I really bend that tang up even more!?
Hi Dylan,
No! No! No! you don't bend it more you bend it less
You straighten the bastard out again and hope it don't break off!
When the floats are set correctly the little tang in the middle that touches the float needle should be parallel to the rest of the tang and mebbe a millimeter below it.
That's below with the carb upside down.
Like 5twin's photo shows.
And you ask where the slow running needles are?
In a vertical cylindrical part of the main body casting, on top, nearest to the engine.
Check if the EPA-mandated anti-tampering plugs are still atop of them.
If so the needles and their associated passages ain't been cleaned since the bike left the factory.
