hondatri:
 ok stupid question guys. I have made up a height measure 21mm for float level. With the carbs upside down do I measure at the furthest point from the valve end, Or am I doing it wrong,

tom400f:
You are measuring from the face of the carb body to the top (that is bottom) of the float. Make sure the weight of the float is not depressing the sprung pin.

Bodd:
From the float bowl mating face to the highest part of the bottom of the float when the carb is inverted.

The 400/4 carb  float pivots at one end while the opposite end of the float is the highest point is this where I measure height.

Bodd:
Mine are pretty much parallel with the carb body/float bowl seating face as they should be. Not my picture but mine were pretty much like this, you need to bend the centre tang next to the pivot point to make them level.
