I have a Carter AVS 4617S on a 1969 340. It used to be my daily driver but it hasn't been driven regularly in quite some time.
I rebuilt the carb and am trying to get the floats set right.
What I think is a simple question... should the float be parallel to the top when setting the height?
I can't find a clear video/picture/explanation anywhere. I read it should be parallel but I think those are referring to parallel with the side of the carb when looking down on it, so it doesn't stick when moving.
Attached a really stupid picture to help clarify my question. Thanks!
I plan on setting the height to 7/16" and the drop to 1" based on what I've read in other posts.
