    Float levels

    OK guys, I need to readjust my float levels on the end carbs on my 435. Since I want to lower to fuel level in the bowl, which way do I turn the adjusting screw? Clockwise or counerclockwise??? Sorry for this senior moment.....

    Turn the adjusting nut clockwise to lower the float level, counter-clockwise to raise it.

      Mark, as always, John is correct. Remember, it's not the screw you adjust, it's the nut. The screw locks it down. Turn nut to the right. Bill.

        Thanks John. As always, I appreciate your help. I'm glad I have the car running again - leaky carbs and all that.
