don cook1 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I have HS6s fitted to my GT6, ports, chamber and manifold are lightly tuned, single K&N mounted down by the radiator, 6-3-1 Phoenix and Aldon ignition. What should the float levels be. I think the carbs are ex Sprint.Heard a suggestion that 1/8" is good but.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Jones Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Just for you I have ventured to the manuals library..... :PAcc. Haynes SU book:The float chamber lid and float are help upside down for this procedure.Measure between the lowest point on the float and the top of the raised lip around the inside of the gasket face on the float chamber lid (use a drill bit or suitable metal rod). Should be between 3.2 & 4.8mm. For plastic float carbs adjustment is by aluminium washers under the needle valve housing. Brass floats (V rare in may experience) you can gently bend the tab. Text implies a different measurement for brass floats but doesn't give one. Also only one measurement given for the whole HS carb family.The Haynes saloon book gives no value. My proper manual is too old to mention SUs.CheersNick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
