Carb quickie

Okay, I'm of the firm belief that the only reason I'm posting this is that I've inhaled far too many Carb-cleaner fumes over the past 36 hours.

I'm having difficulty remembering how the weights connect to the floats.

Anyone have a nice picture handy?

Thanks.

Okay, it was the fumes. As soon as I actually opened my eyes, it was readily apparent - sorry for the false alarm

I wasn't aware that there were weights attached to the floats. I thought those were needles...

See! The fumes were incapacitating!

Of course, I went to install the carb and start the car but... the battery was dead.

damn Murphy and his law!
