Dan, thanks for the reply. I think you’re correct. I found the diagram below last
night before “lights out”. It would make one believe the float pin goes thru it,
but it must work in conjunction with the wire clip on the float needle.
Looks like quite a lash up! ………. no wonder mine has the wrong needle…..
probably out of desperation.
I’m not ready to spend $40 on a kit to get the right float needle, and I have
no idea if my needle seat is original, and most of the kits I see don’t include the seat.
Come to think of it, some of the kits show a rubber seat that goes inside the brass fitting.
I do not have that style.
I have a Ted Williams or two in the shed…… wonder if they have similar carb parts.
Will have to explore that option.
Prepare to be boarded!
