I bent the tab a little futher on the front float and i think i got it. I even used a 14mm bolt and a school ruler to verify. Tomorrow ill try on the rear carb.
-
Well ill have to get a 14mm screw as im trying to measure with a high school ruler and its impossible to get it perfect
-
Well my float sync set finally arrived. I have managed to bend the tabs a little bit more but still believe the level is low. I took some pictures as reference. What do you think?
-
Both of my needles are SM needles.

The 2.5 turns is just a base line to get the car idling? Mine is idling at 3 turns clockwise. My engine has been modified to 2.6L and has a shneider 274 camshaft with ovesized pistons. I believe the engine gets better at 3.5 turns. I.have the colortune tool so i can check anyway.
-
A little bending not much of a difference! You tell me?
-
This is how i have the front carburetor float right now. I will bend it as you say. The fuel level is at shown in the picture without bending.
-
Ok will push it then. Anyway my float syncs should be here next week for more precision.
-
Please refer to this photo. I need the level to raise in the chamber. Shall i just push the tang towards the float?
-
Thats what i meant! The tang needs to be pushed and not lifted away from the float.
-
This is just a spare float i had in the storage room. To raise to fuel level i just need to push the tab towards the float and not raise it away from the float? By the way the tab on this float is ruined.
-
Thanks. I thought all i had to do is push it down with my finger. I really dont want to mess the ramp form.
-
Can you point out where exactly is the 23 mm mark?
-
Well once again i tried to use the plastic glasses while i wait for my float syncs to arrive. I marked the 23mm measurement from the top downwards with a pencil. I guess front one needs some bending. Im afraid i bend it to much and mess it up. I guess its better to leave it as it is unless you can point out how to accomplish this safely. First pic is rear carb.
-
I have a spare single point distributor and would like do dismantle to service it. Is it worth?
-
I need my set! Waiting for Randall.
-
I dont have the pair of float syncs yet. I am using clear plastic tubes so i guess im looking for 23mm down from the lid.
-
Ok. Let me see if i can find a pencil first to mark it. If it is not there yet i will need to bend the tab slightly.
-
?????
-
23 mm down from where exactly? From where to where shall i measure with the caliper?
-
Is it 23mm from the gasket down?
-
This is the fuel level using the clear hoses Ztherapy sold me long time ago. Im still waiting for Randall to sell me a kit of his great invention.
-
Well i guess it was indeed the gasket. I do have some spares but since i will be adjusting the floats i will only use them when they are fully adjusted. I tried a sealant to fix this one. Hope it does not leak if i decide to drive wild.
-
I wont be able to check this until i get my battery charged.
-
Battery needs charge so i will open both chambers once i charge it.
