I'm running a stock fuel pump and I have the fuel filter away from the engine I'm using a rubber line. I took the carb apart earlier this week and checked the float levels. The book says 7/16" between the top of float and top of carb and 15/16" to 1" drop. They measure 7/16" and 15/16" drop so you are saying I can have them drop lower and it might help? Thanks for the suggestions.
