To adjust Dellorto DHLA float level-
Reading from the blurb in repair kit, and I quote:
"Check that the float has the actual weight marked on it, is not damaged and is also free to swivel on its pivot.
Hold the carburettor cover vertically so that the float arm is in light contact with the needle and with the spring in the needle not compressed.
In this position, check that both the half-floats are at the correct distance from the float chamber cover, measured to the gasket fitted to it.
Float 7298.1, 14.5-15.0mm
Float 7298.2, 16.5-17.0mm
So, kiddies, float level is critical, set it right then don't mess with it.
<edit> Also important is the full droop setting of 25mm, not mentioned in the blurb.
With cover horizontal, that is the distance the float can drop to. Adjust by bending the little tag near the pivot pin.
