2) If I need to make an adjustment, what do I "bend" :shock: (for lack of a better term)? The metal tang that sits over the top of the float needle is the part that needs to be bent to adjust the float height. See Pic.
3) What do the numbers below mean for mine regarding float height and what type of measurement is this? This means 22.4 mm, plus or minus 1mm as the float measurement with the carb upside down on the bench. The figures in brackets are in inches. Measure from top of float, not top of float hinge to recess where you took the float bowl gasket away from. If gasket is still in place subtract another mm from the measurement.
Hope this helps and you can understand it OK.
