I took carb apart and cleaned it and it seems to run better, but I need to rebuild it. :p
thanks guys
now...where did that part go??

I would probably disconnect the battery, pull the sender unit and check the float. Most of the old ones have gone south with pinholes and full of gas. Take your carb #'s into NAPA and they should be able to get you a standard kit. Try to get the "deluxe" kit if you can. There is a lot of stuff on carb cleaning and rebuild here to search too. Good luck. | | |
