When you tried the other carb,did you take it apart and clean it first and make all the adjustments? The floats are noted for having many problems. The float level should be adjusted to be set closed when the carburetor is upside down and the float level,level with the bowl gasket . Hope this makes sense to you,if not refer to repair manual. Initial high speed needle adjustment should be 3/4 In. open from the closed position. The slow speed needle should be set at 1 1/4 to 2 turns from the closed position.
