@pishta can fully understand your frustration
weber made them brass floats
LCN spain owned the brand and made them brass and plastic floats and made edelbrock carbs as well
Magneti Marrelli owned the brand and runs the factory that LCN ran and makes them brass and plastic floats.
and one of those companies give up on waxed card gaskets, moved to big thick rubber lid gaskets, and we are now back with card gaskets.
on top of that Most books written on the subject are from the weber italy era and do not cover the fat and thin gaskets the changes to floats and the consolidation of the best features of numerous versions of each carburettor series into one or two "continuation"models
on the one hand i presume your crab worked on the previous car. so try it.
we don't know what the last owner did to it..... possibly nothing.
attached sections of weber book covering all of the DG DF style carbs
However the attached PDF 32-36.pdf page 2 has float setting specification for 3 types of DGV there is variation in settings across the 3 maybe 1 will work with the float/needle in your carb.
36-36 included as well incase you have a float for a 36-36 DGAS in your DGV.
when you get this to work, it will work very well...
