Re: Can't believe how hard it is to find the stock float hei

87 FZ750 fuel level or float height?

Can't find what the stock float bowl height is for a 87 FZ750 genesis. The fuel level is supposed to be 8.3 mm but is this measured from what point on the carb? and what are the lines marked for on the outside of the bowls as this marking would be way too much fuel if that were the level. I recently...

Re: Got some problems with floats height

You should "not" compress the springs if setting your fuel level this way, the float bowls should just "seat" onto the fuel needle spring and measure from carb gasket seat to top of float bowl.
