[QUOTE="bmonnig, post: 538455, member: 36555"] Guys, Thanks for the input. I ended up using my calipers to get the readings. I sighted along a straight edge of the caliper jaws to make sure I was parallel with the bottom of the float. It turns out my floats were lightly tweaked. One was higher than the other. Using my calipers I was able to set them both at the exact same height, and set them to the 16mm +/- 1mm as specified. I also cleaned/wiped down the float needle, and cleaned out the needle seat with some q-tips. No grit, but a fair amount of yellow varnish-like buildup came out. I'm not sure which adjustment did what, but the bike doesn't puke gas anymore. Also, today the bike fired on the first kick (which hasn't happened in a while). It's the first time I've fired the bike since doing the cleaning/adjustment. Hopefully it'll stay! Brandon [/QUOTE]
