Weber DGV float setting

My float dimensions I gave earlier in the thread come from the Haynes manual, which covers dozens of Weber models.....

Float level is critical with Webers because the upper emulsion tube holes can be covered or uncovered by the static fuel level. Fuel level is also dependant on [a] fuel pressure n/seat size. Higher fuel pressure, float needs to sit lower; same if the n/seat size is increased. I never liked the steel/spring loaded needles in these carbs. Redline in Hollywood used to make Viton
tipped needle & seats for some Webers, not sure about DGVs. Viton is much more forgiving & less likely to cause flooding.
Float drop is also critical with some Weber models, & nothing to do with the needle falling out.
It is because if the fuel in the bowl is used up quickly & the float drops too far, the float can contact the wall of the float chamber....& jam open. Result is flooding. So this is an important measurement.

Not critical on Carter, Holley, QJ 4 bbl carbs.
