    Adjusting the float height?

    Hi Guys,

    Just checking what tool you guys use to adjust the float tabs to change the float heights please

    I use a cheap micrometer to check height and a flat blade screwdriver to bend the tabs.

      I use cheap plastic calipers that I can lock at the correct height. I use the depth measuring part.

      Sometimes I need something a little more pointy to get in there and bend the tab, so I use a jeweler's screwdriver. Usually, I just use a small flat blade.

      Make sure both sides of the float are at the same height, too...
