I have tried to get them level with the clear tube, but 1 and 4 will not come up any higher - level. Wise
Although I have. A new fuel filter on to line before the cards I still have so much crap getting into to bowls.
I have to do another tare down and clean them better and also look at the footer valves on 1 and 4 that's the cost of being a newbe but I,ll get there
Thank you for the help I'm so glad to have found this Site. Dan

The metal is thin and can get 'dingers' so don't use heavy chain. Some string attached helps when fishing the chain out. 1980 Gpz550 D1, 1981 GPz550 D1. 1982 GPz750R1. 1983 z1000R R2. all four aces

Bend the float balls up slightly and have the tangs almost level. Use them to fine adjust the fuel level.
