I am rebuilding my carbs and found somthing weird below the float. There is a piece of sheet metal with some slits in it on the bottom of each float bowl.
Anyone have an idea on what the heck these are? I'll get a phot uploaded soon (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) |

hmmm sounds like someone modded the float bowls with these plates to keep fuel around the main jets pickups. this assure he mains have fuel under hard cornering. Also if all the float bowl mods have been done, the "boss" around the main jet pickup will have been ground away.

Look in Bruce Anderson's book, and you'll see how he suggests it should be done. Not a bad idea. I'd probably leave them in.

If the ridge around the main jet port is cut down, bowl sediment will get in them jets easier then if they are unmodified. so use a good fuel filter or two. Good to have either way though.
