I am working on our '67 GT6's carbs which were totally gummed up from sitting. I am fitting new float valves and need to adjust the float height. These are not the same as the later CDS, CDSE, or CD2SE carbs.
The factory manual says to set the early 150CD float height so the big end of the float (near the pivot) is 18mm from the carb body when the carb is inverted. The factory manual does not specify a height for the outboard ends of the floats. Can anyone who has worked on the early carbs confirm the 18mm value and have you ever seen a value for the outboard end of the float height as is presented for later carbs?
Thanks,
Doug
