Float height 500 k1

(1/4) > >>

Honda enthusiast:
Hi all

Just thought I'd ask my floats are at 22mm and it's running very rich, I have Hendler carb kits on the way as I suspect a wire has been used to clear the jets....can anyone please confirm the float height...

Thanks 😄

Mine were set at 22 mm by Gerben as per manual.

Honda enthusiast:
Ted, thank you 🙂 how many turns out are your mixture screws?⁹

I can't help you with that at the moment as the engine has not been started up - 1.5 turns is I believe the norm starting point.
