    On the RD & Big Twin carbs you can use the floats out of the TR carbs like the 25hp thru 70hp OMC engines. Part #382363 or Sierra #18-7210. Both are Nitrile material and won’t be bothered by different fuel blends. Simple solution. Slight modifications have to be made, but simple enough to do.
    Other late model floats from different engines can be modified to work for older motors. I think a V-4 float might could be modified to work on a 9.5, but I haven’t tried it myself yet? You just have to look at the various shapes to get some ideas.
