Tillitson J1B carb

From the Tillotson factory manual: "GASOLINE LEVEL - To obtain proper level, remove upper half of carburetor, turn UPSIDE DOWN and with the float lever resting on the inlet needle, carefully bend float lever to give a distance of  1-13/16 inches from the face of gasket to the top of the float."

 

From The Carburetor Shop School of Hard Knocks - GASOLINE LEVEL - DON'T bend the float lever, IT WILL BREAK! Acquire a selection a round gaskets of the proper diameter, and varying thicknesses. The gasoline level may be adjusted by varying the thickness of the fuel valve seat gasket.
