1937-52 Linkert M51L  

Thanks, I was adjusting to M 74 specs and this made all the difference on a 47 UL.

cork floats are dang delicate, superglue can be your freind.

I have a new needle with a rubber tip ,could not get it to seal ,the seat is machined flat and the hole does not have a shanfer on it , when I drop the needl in and suck on the fuel inlet it leaks . I finally found a ball bearing that just fit the hole ,I dropped it in and gave it a couple of taps with a small machine hammer . That solved the leak problem .

My M88 is squirting gas. I've taken it apart and rebuilt it using your amazing videos and nothing. The bowl fills with gas but that's all. I was wondering if the bottom bowl nut is supposed to be hallowed out or flat because I ordered a new one because their photo appears to be flat. FYI I've ordered all new parts, like springs, gaskets, ball bearing, etc.

Is that a new float? If so where did you locate it at?

Is float o reten?

Can I make a homemade float that works?

Ducky float….
