GOT the new motor in, everything wired up, fluids all done, fied her up and, yes!! She lives..oops no she doesnt, gas pouring out of one of the webers..aargh! Decided to double check the float level. One of the support arms that hold the float had broken off. Did a quick repair job last night, midnight I might add... Drill thru the offending broken bit and the post, scavenged a number 2 nut and bolt from an old pair off specs and repair done. Fingers crossed....will reasemble carb again today and hopefully be up and running by noon. :willy_nilly:

That is funny and should put a smile on anyone's face that has ever worked on a carb and had issues with the float and valve while setting it all up.

 

By the way nice repair on the float rod holder LANCYLAD. Hope it works for you.
