    Ahh yes. Those big twins are notorious for flooding, if the float drop is not set correctly. The little tab on the back side of the float will take care of that. Allowing the float to drop for than 1/4" is pointless anyhow, because the needle is closing off a tiny little hole, to begin with.
    All I do, is hold the float up, in the closed position and bend the little tab toward the carb body that hold the needle and seat.
