adjusting float levels

Post by hughybabes » Thu Dec 22, 2005 7:16 pm

Since the rebuild of the twin carb motor, it has had a flutter/hesitation on right hand turns; more pronounced on an uphill incline. Have replaced dizzy cap, rotor button and plug leads. Have checked for faults in wiring and vacuum hoses.
Saw a post on USMB that said he had a similar problem and found it was the carby float levels. How easy is it to play with these? Do I need to replace a top cover gasket when reassembling?
Thanks,
Steve
