Put a 11/16" (4.36mm) drill bit between the float and the body of the carb. On the opposite side from the hinge of the float. The float should just touch the drill bit.

11/16" Is nearly 3/4", that is without question incorrect. The correct answer is the float opposite from the hinge should be 11/64" away from the roof of the carburator when in the closed position.

Where is the float on a lawn mower?

The Float is Inside the carb. when the bowl fills up, the float goes up cutting off fuel from gas tank. It has a inlet needle connected to it that seals off the fuel...on older Tecumseh engines, the float is metal and will almost always after a time get a hole in it, which will keep the float from floating, and cause your carb. to flood.

Bend the tab that contacts with the "needle". But DON'T put pressure on the needle when you do so. Carburetor rebuild instructions that come with the carb rebuild kit will tell you how to adjust everything and give optimum float level settings.
