Guys... I was trying to diagnose a starting problem on my BJ8 and noticed a lot of flooding occurring out of the float bowls. I have never had these apart, but noticed the 3 prongs on the float levers attaching end were bent up and one of the levers was even installed upside down! I don't think they are the original float levers. My question is, should these be attached to allow the lever to move full motion? If it did, it would seem like the needles would be free to fall out when fully open.
The other option is to allow only limited movement of the lever by extending the middle prong so it stops on the small metal bar in the middle. It's a wonder these things worked in my car at all!
The manuals depict only the original levers configuration. Any help appreciated!
