Carburetor Float
(1/1)
ta78w72:
Where can I find a brass float for a carburetor for a 78 400?
The repo places only seem to carry nitrophl floats. As does the carbs unlimited, and the Carburetor Doctor has brass floats but they are out of stock.

OK, I found brass floats on ebay. They fit perfectly. I bought five of them so I'll have spares! Priced right too....$9.99 each and $4.00 shipping for the lot.

LOL....five will last you a life time and then some. :lol:

You're suppose to replace the original nitrophly floats because modern fuels can cause them to get heavy and lose their buoancy. I have four carburetors to rebuild, so that leaves one spare. The brass floats ought to last forever.
I did test the nitrophly float from the carburetor I'm rebuilding. It hadn't lost its buoancy so I may reuse it. It's pretty simple to replace the float it there are problems in the future.
