What are some issues or problems I'd see if I had either a flaky float or float issue. Besides the obvious of fuel coming out of the overflow, what other issues would I see. Trying to think out some theories here, so I need to bounce some ideas.

The screw is in the same location for all four carbs. Mark #1098

Does anybody on the board know what the spec fuel height translates into float height?
