Re: cork floats

[r-c]

If you bought a new BRP kit, the coating on the new cork float has a special coating for the ethanol fuel. Compare it to the original and you will notice it has a slightly different color to it. Can’t speak about aftermarket kits.
All the other advise for older cork floats that may not be able to replace is good. Just be aware not to over coat it and make it heavier, were it will not float correctly and not shut off the inlet needle.
